CalComp Emulation Commands
Super L III recognizes a subset of the CalComp 3400 command set. Space does not permit
a detailed description of CalComp commands. However, most of the commands in this
subset have equivalent Super L III commands. For further information about the operation
of those commands, please refer to the Super L III command or function description in the
GTCO CalComp by Turning Technologies Super L III Command Summary.
NOTE: CalComp commands must be terminated with a <CR>, which is not shown in the
codes listed here. Commands can be strung together by substituting an @ character for
the <ESC>% sequence after the first command and postponing the <CR> until the end of
the multiple command string.
