(cc) Represents the Special Function Control Character.
USET The User Set command; enter USET.
n Selects USET character set number; enter a value
ranging from 1 to 8.
ca Represents the ASCII character cell hex address, which
will have its contents replaced with the character
located in the font address (fa). The ca value must be
one of the 16 hex values specified in Table 7–2 on page
7–5.
fa Represents the hexadecimal value for the font address
of a specified character in the Multinational character
set (page 7–11) which will replace the current contents
of ca. The fa value is the character substitution for the
cell address (ca). The value of fa may range from 20 to
FF hex.
END Ends the USET command.
Comments You can define up to 16 character substitutions for each of the eight
user–definable character sets. It is not necessary to address all 16 spaces
available for character substitutions with a single USET command.
The character sets in the USET command are numbered 1 through 8. The
character set values in the Character Set Selection (ISET) command (page
7–10) are numbered 24 through 31 and correspond to User Sets 1 through
8. The ISET command accesses and prints that custom character set.
