Reserving
space for
measured
variables
In order to be able to insert measured value (variables) into
text afterwards, the location within the text must be marked
using „Ctrl V“, which reserves 6 spaces into which any
characters may be entered, since they are overwritten at a
later time anyway; they are merely wildcards.
Creating a
text block
Example:
Entry:
TEMPERATURE <Ctrl V> XXXXX °C <CR>
<Ctrl> counts as one digit, so you only have to enter 5
wildcard characters.
The printout would look like this:
TEMPERATURE 263,45 °C.
A text block is created by combining several texts.
A text block can be printed in a single call.
To achieve this, place the beginning and the end of the text
in brackets at entry time. Use the control characters:
Ctrl X = opening bracket
Ctrl Y = closing bracket
The texts within a text block
must have continuous numbers !
To delete text within a text block without creating a
blank line, the text numbers following the deleted
line must be decreased by 1 to move them forward.
This is not done automatically but has to be entered
manually.
