PREFACE
This manual describes the prepackaged icons and character sets available for use with VGA
Plus.

This guide assumes that the reader is familiar with the information presented in the VGA Plus
Programming Manual, TP-799499-000A.

Character Sets
Section 1 describes all the prepackaged character sets available for VGA Plus. This includes
both the sets in the standard graphics library and the sets supplied as part of the Diebold Design
Utility.

Icons
Section 2 describes all the prepackaged icons.

Section 1
Character Sets
This section describes all the prepackaged character sets available for VGA Plus. This includes
both the sets in the standard graphics library and the sets supplied as part of the Diebold Design
Utility. Each character set description shows the characters in the set, states the size of the
characters, and indicates the screen data character(s) required to display each character on the
Consumer Display.

Space Character
Each prepackaged character set contains a space character that matches the size of the other
characters in the set. To display the set's space character, you simply place a space character in
your screen data.

The VGA Plus Programming Manual, TP-799499-000A, lists the character sets in the standard
graphics library, and tells what font numbers are assigned to each set. If your institution uses a
custom graphics library, ask your Diebold Design Utility operator for a list of your character sets
and font numbers.

Character Set Descriptions

Each character set description includes the character, the screen data, and the ASCII
hexadecimal data as follows:

Some characters requires a VT control sequence to display. If this is the case, the character set
description includes the character, the screen data, and the ASCII hexadecimal data as follows:

BASIC SET
The basic set is included in every graphics library, both standard and custom. With the exception
of the copyright symbol ©, each character block is one column wide and 12 scan lines high. The
copyright symbol is two columns wide and 12 scan lines high.

All the characters from the space character through the underscore character use standard ASCII
or EBCDIC character codes to display the corresponding character. The remainder of the
characters in this character set require a VT control sequence to display the character.

BORDERS AND BACKGROUNDS (8 X 12)
The borders and backgrounds sets are collections of mosaic blocks for constructing decorative
borders and backgrounds for text and icons on the Consumer Display. The borders can be
extended horizontally and vertically to surround as large an area of the display as you want to
enclose. The small shapes corresponding to screen data codes space through comma (,)
(hexadecimal 20 through 2C) can be used to tile an area of any size, creating a patterned
background for text and icons.

The borders and backgrounds (8 x 12) set is included in every graphics library, both standard and
custom. This set is designed for a row size of 12 scan lines. You can use this version of borders
and backgrounds with the basic set; the helvetica, century, and rolling fonts; and the Arabic, Thai,
and Russian sets. Each mosaic block is one column wide and 12 scan lines high. For an example
of constructing a border, refer to the VGA Plus Programming Manual.

Section 2
Icons
This section describes all of the prepackaged icons. For each icon, the text provides the icon
number and indicates both the high-resolution and low- resolution width and height of the icon as
follows:

Icon nnn
cc x rrr low
cc x rrr high

Where:

 nnn - indicates the icon number

 cc - indicates the width of the icon (number of columns)
 rrr - indicates the height of the icon (number of rows for row size of 12)

VGA Plus supports four resolutions. The VGA Plus Programming Manualdescribes resolutions in
the following format:

PPP x SSS x CCC

Where PPP stands for the number of pixels the terminal displays on each line, SSS stands for the
number of horizontal scan lines the terminal can display, and CCC stands for the number of
colors that the terminal can display at any one time.

The high-resolution icons can be displayed in the following resolutions: 640 x 480 x 256 and 640
x 480 x 16. The low-resolution icons can be displayed in the following resolutions: 320 x 240 x
256, and 320 x 200 x 256.

Translating Scan Lines to Rows

The height of characters and icons is stated in scan lines. To calculate the number of rows
occupied by the icon, divide the height of the icon by the number of scan lines in each row.

The following pages list the icons in order by icon number.
