You will find further information regarding the working with keyboard fields
in the chapter Keyboard fields (page 62)!
With the <Extern Text> object it is possible to use external text files as a data source for
the print-out. There are two options for using the external data:
1. A fixed length character string shall be transferred via an Ethernet connection.
For this requirement you can use the function <Extern Text>.
2. Data shall be transferred via an Ethernet connection as tab separated values.
With each transfer command one record will be transferred. This function is called
<Mailing>.
Requirements <Extern Text>
You have to set the interface parameters in the interface dialog box.
To use the <Extern Text> function you will have to create an extern text object.
The parameters for the object are set in the <Extern Text> dialog box. For an
<Extern Text> object you will have to define the number and the characters for
the <wildcards> and an optional <Offset>.
The data is transferred via the Ethernet interface.
The data can be transferred with any terminal software e.g. like Hyperteminal.
You have to make sure that the parameters in the terminal software correspond with the
parameter set for the JET2neo.
