Epson FX-80 User Manual page 91

How about that for an impressive selection! Give your FX-80 a pat on
the back (top?).
Notice that the program stores the desired codes in DATA state-
ments, and that the READ statement in line 10 transfers the codes to
the variable N. READ and DATA statements are used again in Chap-
ter 12.
You may use your printout (or the one shown as Figure 5-2) as a
handy reference sheet, or you may prefer to see it in chart form. The
complete chart for all 256 numbers is shown as Table 5-1.
You can also see from the printout and the chart that the Master
Select feature affects only these modes:
Elite
Compressed
Expanded
Double-Strike
Emphasized
Each of the five modes above corresponds to one of the eight data lines
(bits) in the computer. Three of the bits are unused. These three bits
don't affect the outcome, but they do increase the number of possible
codes for each mode combination. For example, the combination of
Double-Strike and Elite can be entered with either:
CHR$(27)"!"CHR$(17)
or
CHR$(27)"!"CHR$(19)
(Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.) Table 5-1 shows that any of the mode
combinations can be selected by more than one number.
