1.3.7-4 Character Codes 
For character code designation, either ASCII codes or 2-byte codes are used. 
 
(1) ASCII code(When the number of communication bytes is "1 byte") 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Applicable to cases where the number of user pattern characters does not exceed 48 
(user pattern characters 00 through 47). 
 
 
(2) 2-byte codes(When the number of communication bytes is "2 bytes") 
User pattern character 00: F140 = high-order byte F1 + low-order byte 40. See 1.4.1 code table (4). 
 
1.3.7-5 Supplement 
 
● If the same character code is used to transmit two or more user pattern character data in a single message,  
the last-transmitted data takes effect. 
● When two or more user pattern characters having differing character sizes or character codes are 
transmitted in a single message, no limitations are imposed on the order in which they are transmitted.  
 
 
1.3.7-6 Example of user registration character transmission 
(1) Example where number of communication bytes of communication environment settings is 
"1 byte," character size is "5 x 5" and character code is "47." 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
[Transmission Result] 
Defines character size 5×5, character code 47 user pattern.
