2.1 Summagraphics Microgrid UIOF Output Format
2.1.1 Overview
The Summagrid IV report formats conform to Summagraphics’ Microgrid UIOF
(Universal Input/Output Format) standards. To accommodate the special needs,
choose the format to be in ASCII or packed binary.
2.1.2 ASCII BCD Report Format
Within the ASCII BCD report format the user can choose:
 The output to be in counts, inches or millimeters.
In units of measure (inches or millimeters), the user can also choose the
format to include a decimal or not. This does not change the value of the
coordinate. For example, 10.123 inches can be reported as either 10123 or
10.123.
 Each report to terminate with a <CR><LF> or just a <CR>.
 Delimiter to be any ASCII character. (The default is a comma.)
Refer to the key for definitions of each format character.
For reports, in counts, the format is:
SXXXXX,SYYYYY,FF,T<CR><LF>
For reports in U.S. measure and high resolution (1000 lpi = 39.37 lpmm) or low resolution
(200 lpi = 7.874 lpmm), the format is:
SXX.XXX,SYY.YYY,FF,T<CR><LF>
For reports in metric measure and high resolution (1016 lpi = 40 lpmm), the format is:
SXXXX.XXX,SYYYY.YYY,FF,T<CR><LF>
For reports in metric measure and low resolution (254 lpi = 10 lpmm), the format is:
SXXXX.X,SYYYY.Y,FF,T<CR><LF>
