T5023/5023+ - Programming Guide 149
Selecting the character set
Function:
Using ESC t (n), one of the following character sets of the complete upper cha-
racter table is selected:
– Italic character set (n= 0)
The upper character table contains the italic characters of the current cha-
racter set (draft, LQ or defined by the user). The upper control code table
contains control codes (identical to those of the lower control code table).
– Graphics character set (n= 1)
The complete upper character table contains graphics characters and inter-
national special characters.
– Character set defined by the user (n= 2)
The upper character table contains the characters defined by the user. The-
se characters can be used simultaneously with the standard characters
(ROM) without switching character set. For this, 128 must be added to each
code assigned with ESC & when defining the characters.
