Command Codes

Paper Instruction (PI) Enable/Disable

Purpose

Enables or disables use of the PI line using a parallel I/O device.
(This command does not enable/disable PI line sensing; it
enables or disables use of the “sensed” PI line.)

Mode

NORMAL

Format

(cc)EN-PI or (cc)DIS-PI

(cc)

The Special Function Control Code.

EN-PI

The Enable PI command; enter EN-PI. When this
command is enabled, the IGP senses PI line, the 8
bits of data are interpreted as a paper instruction
command, and the PI line itself is ignored.

DIS-PI

The Disable PI command; enter DIS-PI. When the
Disable PI command is sent, the 8 bits of data are
interpreted as printable characters, and not as a
paper instruction command.

Print File

Purpose

Prints files from the flash memory. Print File can be used to show
the SETUP functions that exist.

Format

filename

(cc)

will attempt to print any file on the flash.
