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 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.
