6.3.3 Edit a shift code field
To edit an existing shift code:
1 Find and select the message that contains the shift code field, as described in the
Linx 8900 Quick Start Guide.
2 Touch the Edit this Message button.
3 At the Editor screen, touch the shift code field in the message to highlight the field.
The field is highlighted in yellow.
4 Touch the Edit Properties button. The printer displays the Shift Code Properties
screen (see Figure 87 on page 87.).
5 Touch the Edit Cycle button to add items to the shift code, as shown in ‘Create a
shift code field’ on page 86. The printer places the new item in the correct position
in the list. For a Daily shift code, the position depends on the start time of the new
item. For a Weekly shift code, the position depends on the day of the week and the
start time.
6 Touch the Exit button to return to the Shift Code Properties screen.
You can also edit the following properties of the shift code field:
• Font Name—Select the required font from the list. You must also select a font
size.
• Font Size—Select the required font size from the list.
NOTE: You cannot change the font size for fixed message styles.
• Bold Factor—Select a value in the range x1 to x10.
• Character Rotation—rotates the characters in the selected field by 0, 90, 180, or
270 degrees to the right, as shown in the Linx 8900 Quick Start Guide.
• Field Rotation—rotates the selected field by 0, 90, 180, or 270 degrees to the
right, as shown in the Linx 8900 Quick Start Guide.
NOTE: If you rotate a field, the field can move outside the message area and will
not print correctly. The printer applies a red highlight to indicate any field
that is outside the message area. If necessary, you can adjust the font size to
make sure that the field fits in the message area.
7 Touch the Exit button to return to the Editor screen where you can save or discard
changes to your message.
