7.0 Print Formatting
The CW-90/CW-90X provides seven print formats,
GFMT, NFMT, ACC.FMT, STRM.FM, BUS.FMT, HDRFMT1
and HDRFMT2 . These determine the format of the
printed output when the PRINT key is pressed or when a
KPRINT EDP command is received. The GFMT and
NFMT will print to all ports assigned as DEMAND in the
TRIGGE parameter, based on whether a tare is in the
indicator. The ACCFMT will print to all DEMAND ports
when the ACCUM is displayed. The SFMT will be sent
as a STREAM if TRIGGE is set to STREAM on any port.
The HDRFMT s must be called from another format.
Each print format can be customized to include up to
300 characters of information, such as company name
and address, on printed tickets. You can use the
indicator front panel (
PFORMT menu), EDP commands,
or the Revolutionconfiguration utility to customize the
print formats.
Note
Print formats are limited to 300 characters.

Press the down arrow to cycle to the previous
character. Press the up arrow to cycle to the
next character. To send a decimal point, enclose it in
brackets e.g., <.> or cycle through the characters until the
decimal point is displayed.
7.1 Print Formatting Commands
Table 7-1 lists commands you can use to format the
gross, net and count print formats. Commands included
in the format strings must be enclosed between < and >
delimiters. Any characters outside of the delimiters are
printed as text on the ticket. Text characters can include
any ASCII character that can be printed by the output
device.

Gross, net, and tare weights are 8 digits in length, including
sign and decimal point, followed by a space and a one- to
five-digit units identifier. Total field length with units identifier
is 10-14 characters. Depending on what units are
configured, the units identifier will be lb/oz, lb, oz, g, or kg.
Gross, net, tare, and accumulator weights can be printed in
any configured weight units by adding the following
modifiers to the gross, net, tare, and accumulator weight
commands: /P (primary units), /D (displayed units), /S
(secondary units), /T (tertiary units). If not specified, the
current displayed units (/D) is assumed. Example: To format
a ticket to show net weight in secondary unitsm, use the
following command: .
ID and consecutive number (CN) fields are 1–6 characters in
length, as required.
* If nn is not specified, 1 is assumed. Value must be in the
range 1–99.
** After receiving an SU command, the indicator sends
unformatted data until the next SU command is received.
Unformatted data omits decimal points, leading and trailing
characters.
