Print Message

If the Print message attribute is set to Y, then the DL40 Plus will
send any triggered message to a printer via the RS-232 port. The
message is printed only once (even if the Auto repeat attribute is
active) unless the message variable data changes. If new variable
data is received while the message is running, then the message will
be printed more than once. Type

[Y][

]

to activate or

[N][

]

to

deactivate.

You must configure the RS-232 port for Programmer use.
