2800 Series Marquee

2.6 Tutorial #3, Displaying Mixed Four Inch and Two Inch Text

We can also mix four inch and two inch text on the marquee at the same time. This is accomplished by

specifying some text before the first [Control-Z][n] sequence, or by explicitly sending a [Control-Z][0]

sequence to switch back to one line mode. Send the command diagrammed below to the marquee.

Address Header Entry

Start

Message Text Literal Entry

End

CTRL-B A ESC A CTRL-Z 1 B CTRL-Z 2 C CTRL-Z 0 D ! CTRL-E

02h 41h 1Bh 41h 1Ah 31h 42h 1Ah 32h 43h 1Ah 30h 44h 21h 05h

To use Magic to send the command diagrammed above, type the following into Magic's blue terminal area:

[Control-B][A]

[Escape]

[A]

[Control-Z][1][B]

[Control-Z][2][C]

[Control-Z][0][D][!]

[Control-E]

Building on what we have learned in tutorials 1 and 2, the above command mixes 2” and 4” text on the marquee

at the same time. The complexity of this example should give you an idea of some of the more advanced

message formating possibilities.

Scanning through the message text literal section, observe that the [A] occurs before any embedded formatting

sequences, so it is printed in the default four inch font. The [Control-Z][1] sequence shifts the cursor to the

top two inch line and then the [B] character is printed. The [Control-Z][2] sequence shifts the cursor to the

bottom two inch line and then the [C] character is printed. The [Control-Z][0] sequence shifts the cursor

back to the default four inch line and then the [D] and [!] characters are printed.

Experiment by changing the text after each [Control-Z][n] sequence. Be sure to mix both long and short text

segments to observe the mixed text alignment rules. Also notice that when mixing four inch and two inch text on

the marquee at the same time, the entire message either prints or scrolls as a block.
