LJ SERIES 2D EMULATION

Absolute move: If the # value has no sign, the cursor is moved
down # rows from the top margin.

Relative move, positive: If the # value is preceded by a plus (+)
sign, the cursor is moved # rows down from the current cursor
position.

Relative move, negative: If the # value is preceded by a minus
(-) sign, the cursor is moved # rows up from the current cursor
position.

If an absolute # value (i.e., with no sign) or negative # value
exceeds the top or bottom edges of the printable area, the
cursor is moved to the appropriate edge of the printable area. If
a positive # value specifies a position beyond the bottom of the
printable area, the cursor is moved off the page. The Vertical
Cursor Position commands ignore the perforation region.

Vertical Cursor Position (Decipoints)

Purpose

The Vertical Cursor Position (Decipoints) defines the absolute or
relative position of the vertical cursor in units of decipoints
(1/720th of an inch). The height of a row is defined by the
current Vertical Motion Index (VMI) setting.

Syntax

E

&a#V

Hex

1B 2A 61 # 56

Dec

27 42 97 # 86

where # represents the number of decipoints to move or the
absolute position to move to. The # is valid up to two places to
the right of the decimal point.
