Sample Demo Files
Several text files containing PAL TM examples are included on the product CD. These files show programming
techniques and examples, which may be incorporated into host or PC programming or just used as reference. Each
text file includes descriptive comments within the file. Below is a description of each file:
File Name Description
Pal_Procs_and_Formats.txt This file contains a number of print utilities
written as PAL
TM procedures. These were
designed to illustrate common printing
commands and the use of common PAL
TM
operators. These utilities once defined may
simplify common printing functions. Also
within this file is a number of sample label
Formats. These label formats make extensive
use of the print utilities defined in this file.
These formats show how once a label format is
defined it may be used by simply listing the
variable data and calling the format name.
Format_Demo.txt This file shows how to call up and use the label
formats defined in the file
Pal_Procs_and_Formats.txt
Proc_Demo.txt This file shows how to call up and use the print
utility procedures defined in
Pal_Procs_and_Formats.txt.
Proc_Template.txt This file shows the format of the calls to the
print utility procedures defined in
Pal_Procs_and_Formats.txt
Format_Template.txt This file can be used to define new label
formats. It includes all the print utilities
defined in Pal_Procs_and_Format.txt. Once
new label formats are defined, this file may be
copied to the printer and the new formats may
be called up and used as demonstrated by the
other files.
Note: Before using any of the print utility procedures or label format procedures defined in the text file
Pal_Procs_and_Formats.txt, this file must be copied to the printer so that the PAL TM interpreter can parse these
new procedures. The FlashWiz utility included on the product CD may be used to copy this file to the printer
prior to use.
