ASCII

Under this menu item are Labels and Strings. Following
the explanation of these two items are instructions for
customizing the labels and strings.

Labels are short ASCII strings predefined at the factory.
When information is sent to a serial port and the layout
calls for one of the preset labels, the associated ASCII
string is sent. Following is a list of the label names and the
character called out by the associated ASCII string:

Force = F
Top = P (for Peak)
First = I (for Initial)
Tension = T
'Press = C (for Compression)
C.W. = CW (for Clockwise)
C.C.W. = CCW (for Counter ClockWise)
Id = ID

Strings are groups of ASCII characters. You configure the
indicator to call for these strings in the Layout portion of
the menu. There are five predefined strings and ten other
strings you can modify to suit your needs. The five default
strings are:

Ascii 1: Dillon FI-127
Ascii 2: Loadcell
Ascii 3: Peak:
Ascii 4: 1st Peak:
Ascii 5: Average:
