EXTENDED EMULATION MODE

AXIS AX-3 Cobra+ Technical Reference 42

User Definable Strings

There are ten parameters in the parameter list (parameter #120 to #129, the User

Definable Strings, UDS) that can be programmed by the user to contain arbitrary

strings. The User Definable Strings are programmed using the standard Parameter

Programming (see page 36). To send the stored strings to the printer the method

described on page 39 can be used. There is also an additional syntax for sending the

User Definable strings to the printer:

• <ESC> is the Escape Character, (parameter #040). The default Escape Character is

‘%’.

• <UDS string number> is a decimal value in the range 0 to 9 that refers to one of the

strings in parameter #120 to #129.

Result: The contents of parameter #120 will be sent to the printer. Then ‘Normal Text’ is

printed and finally the contents of parameter #121 is sent to the attached printer.

Note: To send strings Extended Emulation Mode has to be active. See page 34.

Syntax: <ESC>z<UDS String Number>

Example: %z0Normal Text%Z1
