Counter parameters:
 Min – the setting from which counting starts (for counting up), or with which
counting finishes (for counting down).
 Max – the setting at which a counter overflows. When the counter
overflows, counting starts again from the Min setting.
 Start mode – the parameter allows you to set the value from which
counting starts after printer operation has been resumed. Four options are
available:
Min,
Max,
Start value,
Last value.
 Start value – the counter setting from which counting starts after operation
has been interrupted, e.g. when the batteries discharge. This is effective
when the Start mode parameter is set to Start value.
 Last value – the last setting of a counter, which is saved after the printer
has been switched off in regular mode.
 Step – a counter increment. When the setting is a positive number,
counting is incremental, and when it is a negative number, counting is
decremental.
 The Length parameter is used to adjust the number of counter digit
positions to that required by the user.
 The Fill in parameter is used to define a replacement for insignificant digits
of a counter: 0 or space.
 Suffix – any character string to follow the counter printout, limited to 41
characters.
With the button you can modify Start value and Last value. The
parameter is available for the counters that have their Start mode parameters
set to Start value.
If you need to edit your counter just before it is printed, tick the check box for
This object must be edited before printing is started. The value from which
