6.1 Introduction
A set of variable definitions is provided to enable the host to monitor and sometimes alter, the
behaviour of the equipment. These are known as machine variables.
Machine variables are divided into the following three categories.
Equipment Constants: Allow the host to modify certain aspects of the equipment’s
behaviour. See section 5.5 for a discussion on the use of EC’s.
Status Variables: As the name suggests, these variables track continuous system
status values. The host can interrogate the equipment at any time
and can programme the equipment to transmit values on a
regular schedule. The host cannot change these values.
See section 5.2 for a discussion on data collection methods.
Discrete Data Variables: Are similar to Status Variables except that their values are valid
only when specific events occur. The host should not interrogate
these values, but should include them in reports linked to
collection events.
See section 5.2 for a discussion in on data collection methods.
Process Attributes: These variables are used to request name and value information
about the currently loaded printer product.
The machine variables are listed by category in the following sections.

received_mode 10 Set System Mode. This constant is
volatile and defaults to Auto on
machine power up.
U1
1 = Auto
3 = Pass Through

Yes
MaxSpoolTransmit 14 The maximum number of messages
that the equipment will transmit from
the spool in response to a
S6F23”Transmit spooled Messages”
request. If MaxSpoolTransmit is set
to zero, no limit is placed on the
messages sent from the spool. Multi-
block inquire/grant messages are not
counted in this total.
U4
Minimum = 0
Maximum = value of
SpoolCountActual
Yes
OverWriteSpool 15 Tells the printer to overwrite data in
the spool area or stop spooling
whenever the spool area limits are
exceeded.
B1
1 = TRUE to
overwrite spooled
data
0 = FALSE to stop
spooling when limits
are exceeded.
Yes

spooling_enabled 16 Allows the equipment to default to a
condition where spooling is disabled
completely. This is provided for older
Hosts that do not support S6F23. This
EC is set to TRUE = 1 on receipt of
S2F43 defining messages to be
spooled.
B1
0 = FALSE spooling
disabled
If the Host sets this
EC to FALSE any
data in the spool will
be purged.
Yes

39
Not used by the 265.
TimeFormat 40 The setting of this ECV controls
whether the equipment shall send the
Data Items STIME and TIME in 12-

controls the format of
START_TIME. to be 6 or 7 bytes.
B1 0 = 12 byte format
1 = 16 byte format
