Bit definitions in III control code:

Bit Position             Meaning
in code
  0                   0 means space count; 1 means channel #
  1                   Count or
  2                   channel number or
  3                   form number
  4
  5                   0 means after, 1 means before
  6                   0 means print, 1 means don't
  7                   0 means select form, 1 means interpret bit

Adding 400₈ to an III control code will cause a single space after the line in addition to performing the indicated action.

TABLE 6-4. INFORMATION INTERNATIONAL CARRIAGE CONTROLS.

[Special FR 80 carriage control characters recognized]

360 Carriage Control (octal)	Operation
377	(Skip to channel 15 without printing) Clear film gate, don't print and start new job with subsequent line. (Contents of the line will be typed preceded by accounting information.)
363	(Skip to channel 14 without printing) Page synchronize.
353	(Skip to channel 13 without printing) Fiche titling format
012	Select form 1, 2, ..., 15 to be overlaid on subsequent data, and page synchronize.
022

172

NOTE: Page synchronize means interpret all digits in the line as a page number; this page number will be used to assign a position on the film frame to the page that follows. If there are no digits in the line the next film frame position will be assigned. (For applications having more than one page per frame.) The line will not be printed. A skip to channel #1 will be done. (If the next line requests a skip to channel #1, it will not skip to next page.)

6.1 The fiche title may occupy any number of fiche image rows across the top of the fiche (two rows are used in fig. 6-1) .

6.2 An integral number of title character positions (horizontally and vertically) may be assigned to each fiche image in the title rows. In fig. 6-1, the words "FICHE TITLE" have 4-character positions per image horizontally, and 2-line positions vertically.

6.3 The character size used for the title is determined by the number of characters specified horizontally per image.

6.4 Up to 128 (assembly parameter in print processor) characters may be displayed in the title (not including spaces). Up to 16 different messages may be put into the title area.

6.5 The input for the titling may be from the operator's Teletype or from records on the print tape.. In either case, the format is the same. On the print tape, a comma in the carriage control position causes characters from the printing positions to be interpreted as titling information.

6.6 To enter a title from the Teletype, the operator types TITLE/titling information).

6.7 Titling information is in the following format:

6.8 The first character will be:

T: Beginning of title (this title to supersede previous title).
C: Continuation of title information.
(blank): (from tape only) Step to next fiche with same title. All subsequent characters will be ignored.

6.9 The second character will be ignored unless the first character was a T, in which case it will be a digit telling how many fiche image rows will be used for title area.

6.10 Subsequent characters are in a free format, specifying titling parameters for the following titling message. (Blanks are ignored.) Each parameter specification consists of a letter followed by one or two numbers (separated by commas). The letter designates which parameter(s) will be set; the number designates the value to be assigned. A dollar sign indicates that parameter assignments continue in next record. Parameter input will be terminated by a slash (/), which initiates input of text for this title message.

6.11 Parameters:

Cn

Number of characters to be placed horizontally in fiche image area

Ln

Number of text line positions into which a fiche image area will be divided

Hm,n

Horizontal position for first character of message

m=column number
n = character position within column (left character = 1)

Vm,n

Vertical position for first character of message

m = row number
n = line position within rows (top line = 1)

6.12 Text for message may be any character in the printing set. The dollar sign is used as an escape code and the following character is a control code. Control characters are:

$: Put $ into title message.
L: Line return; return to initial character position of this message one line position lower.
C: Text continues in next record, beginning with the third character.
M: End of message, parameters assignments for next message follow.
T: End of title.
A digit: The digit (n) represents the number of characters to be used as a fiche number. The following n characters will be used for the initial fiche #, and its value will be incremented by one on each subsequent fiche.

6.13 Examples:

1. The following title information example will produce the title shown in figure 6-1:

T2 C4 H1,1 L2 V1,1 /FICHE TITLE$M$
C C6 H1,1 L2V2,1/October 12,1970$M$
C C8H4,1 L4 V1,3 /Recorded$L$L   on$C
C $L$L FR 80$M$ 
C C3 H5,2 L2 V1,1 /No.$3  l$T

2. To output two lines of 60 characters in the top fiche image row with 5 characters across each fiche image:

Tl C5 L2 H1,1 V1,1/ (60 characters) $C
C1 $L (60 characters) $T
