STX Y Output Sensor Values
This command causes a sensor value response. When <STX>Y is received, the printer will respond
with the digitally converted values of the internal analog sensors (see below). To repeat the display of
values, send the printer a ‘SPACE’ character (20 hexadecimal); or, send <ESC> to terminate this
function.
Non-Display Models: The printer must be in Test Mode for the command to function. To enable the
Test Mode see the <STX>KD command.
Display-Equipped Models: The printer must have Feedback Characters enabled for this command to
function. (Feedback Mode [Characters] can be enabled via command or menu setting; see the
<STX>KcFM command or the Operator’s Manual for additional information).
Syntax:
<STX>Y
Printer response:
Thermistor ADC: 0048 Reflective ADC: 0000
Transmissive ADC: 0204 Paperout ADC: 0000 24 Volt ADC:
0217 Contrast ADC: 0093 TOF Adjust ADC: 0170 Ribbon
ADC: 0125 Battery Level: Good <CR>
Where:
Paperout ADC: 0225 indicates paper is present;
0000 indicates paper is not present.
Battery level: Good indicates a sufficient battery charge;
Low indicates an insufficient charge.
 Notes: • Equipped sensors may vary with printer, model, and options.
• Some readings require printer-controlled paper movement to produce a meaningful value.
• Media Sensor readings require the appropriate sensor selection, transmissive (
<STX>e) or
reflective (
<STX>r), and label stock in the Media Sensor.
STX y Select Font Symbol Set
This command selects the scalable font symbol set. The selected symbol set remains active until
another symbol set is selected. See the <STX>KS command and Appendices E, I, and H for more
information. Option dependant, and not all symbol sets can be used with all fonts.
Syntax:
<STX>ySxx
Where:
S
- Byte-size designation; see Appendix H:
S = Single byte symbol sets.
U = Double byte symbol sets.
xx
- Symbol set selection.
Sample:
<STX>ySPM
The sample selects the PC-850 multilingual set.
