Input Parameter

input.capture

getvar;setvar

This parameter allows capturing input data in diagnostics

mode. Input capture has three modes: "print", "run", and

"off".  The "print" and "run" modes can be used to exam-

ine data received by the printer.

When in "print" mode the printer will save incoming data

to files named “in???.dmp”, where ??? is a number be-

tween 001 to 999. The printer will then print the text and

hexadecimal representation of data bytes received.

When in "run" mode the printer will save captured incom-

ing data to files as above, but will otherwise run the in-

coming data/commands normally.

The capture files should be deleted from printer memory

after retrieving them. Leaving the printer in "print" or "run"

mode and not deleting the capture files will reduce the

printer's available flash memory.

The "off" mode is the printer's normal operating mode.

Cycling power will also return the printer to "off" mode.
