which will have its contents replaced with the
character located in the font address (

fa). The ca

value must be one of the 16 hex values specified in
Table 23 on page 255.

fa

Represents the hexadecimal value for the font
address of a specified character in the Multinational
character set which will replace the current
contents of

ca. The fa value is the character

substitution for the cell address (

ca). The value of

fa may range from 20 through FF hex.

END

Ends the USET command.

Comments You can define up to 16 character substitutions for

each of the

eight user-definable character sets. It is not necessary to address
all 16 spaces available for character substitutions with a single
USET command.

The character sets in the USET command are numbered 1
through 8. The character set values in the Character Set
Selection (ISET) command (page 256) are numbered 24 through
31 and correspond to User Sets 1 through 8. The ISET command
accesses and prints that custom character set.

The USET and ISET commands are related as shown in Table
23. Therefore, ISET;24 selects the substitution set defined as
USET1, ISET;29 selects USET6, etc.
