4.5.7 FRAMED OVAL
A framed oval field is broken down into seven different parameters. The first two mark
the center point, the next two define the radius width (X) and height (Y), and the last
two set the frame width and height. The fields to be defaulted must be separated by
commas and a carriage return must follow each field definition.
The following is a list of framed oval field mnemonics and their default values:
XC, YC, RX, RY,TCI, FX, FY,,,,,, AN
1, 1, 1, 1, 19, 1, 1,,,,,, 0
Note: All values must be positive integers.
XC X CENTER COORDINATE
The X coordinate of the field is measured in dots. The far left edge of the label as
viewed from the front of the printer is X coordinate 1. There is no X coordinate 0. The X
coordinate increases in size from left to right (see Figure 7). An XB of 203 would place
the text one inch from the left side of the label.
YC Y CENTER COORDINATE
The Y coordinate of the field is measured in dots. A YB of one would be specified as
the first edge of the label coming out of the front of the printer during a label print. The
Y coordinate increases in size from the bottom to the top of the label (see Figure 7). A
YB of 203 would place text one inch from the bottom of the label.
RX RADIUS WIDTH
The width of the rectangle (measured in dots).
RY RADIUS HEIGHT
The height of the rectangle (measured in dots).
TCI TEXT CONVERSION IDENTIFIER
Always set to a value of 19.
FX FRAME THICKNESS (X)
The X dimension width of the frame (measured in dots).
FY FRAME THICKNESS (Y)
The Y dimension width of the frame (measured in dots).
AN ATTRIBUTE NUMBER
If this parameter is set to a value of 2, the field can be printed white on black. A value
of 0 is normal.
