2、ecretariat Computer and Business Equipment Manufacturers Association Approved January 28,1993 American National Standards Institute, Inc. AmericanNationalStandardApproval of an American National Standard requires review by ANSI that therequirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for

3、approval havebeen met by the standards developer.Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of StandardsReview, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materiallyaffected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simplemajority, but not necessarily

4、unanimity. Consensus requires that all views andobjections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward theirresolution.The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existencedoes not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standardsor not, fr

20、 of the - yy is the number represented by b, b, b, and b, where these bits are given the weights 8, 4,2 and 1 respectively. The notations of the form xx/yy are the same as the ones used to identify code table positions, where xx is the column number and yy is the row number (see 5.2). 5.2 Code table

21、 An 8-bit code table consists of 256 positions arranged in 16 columns and 16 rows. The columns and rows are numbered 00 to 15. The code table positions are identified by notations of the form xw/yy, where xx is the column number and yy is the row number. The positions of the code table are in one-to

22、-one correspondence with the bit combinations of the code. The notation of a code table position, of the form xx/yy. is the same as that of the corresponding bit combination. 5.3 Names This lnternational Standard assigns one name to each character. In addition, it specifies an acronym for control ch

23、aracters and for the characters SPACE and DELETE, and a graphic symbol for each graphic character. By convention, only capital letters, and hyphen are used for writing the names of the characters. For acronyms only capital letters, space and digit are used. It is intended that the acronyms and this

24、convention be retained in all translations of the text. The names chosen to denote graphic characters are intended to reflect their customary meaning. However, this International Standard does not define and does not restrict the meanings of graphic characters. Neither does it specify a particular s

25、tyle or font design for the graphic characters when imaged. 6 Structure of the - the control character ESCAPE shall be represented by bit combination 01111; - any control characters can be allocated to the other bit combinations subject to the restrictions specified in annex A. NOTE - A CO set compr

26、ising only ESCAPE represented by bit combination 01/l 1 has been registered (Registration ISO-IR No. 104). and is identified by ESC 02/01 04/07. 7.2 Character ESCAPE ESCAPE is a control character used to form escape sequences. In this International Standard the use of escape sequences is specified i

27、n clause IO. Table 1 - ESCAPE 7.3 Character SPACE A graphic character having a visual representation consisting of the absence of a graphic symbol. It causes the active position to be advanced by one character position. Table 2 - SPACE 7.4 GO set The 94 bit combinations OUOl to 07114 are used to rep

28、resent graphic characters. All graphic characters allocated to bit combinations in the range OUOI to 07114 are spacing characters, that is they cause the active position to advance by one character position. The graphic characters allocated by this International Standard to these 94 bit combinations

It shall not include any of the control characters of the CO set of IS0 6429. No specific control characters are allocated to bit combinations 08/00 to 08113

40、 and 09/00 to 09115 by this International Standard. When the single-shift functions SS2 and SS3 are used, they shall be allocated to bit combinations O - the character SPACE represented by bit combination 02/00, - the GOset; - the character DELETE represented by bit combination 07/15; - aClset; - aG

At Level I no shift functions shall be used and the GO and Gl sets are assumed to be invoked permanently in columns 02 to 07 and IO to IS. respectively At Level 1 the Cl set and/or the Gl set may be empty if there is no requirement for control characters in addition to those provided by the CO

42、 set and/or for graphic characters in addition to those provided by the GO set. At Level I a version shall not include a G2 or a G3 set. 8.2 Level 2 Level 2. see figure 3. comprises the facilities of Level 1 and in addition to them - a G2 set the characters of which shall be invoked individually by

43、SS2; - a G3 set the characters of which shall be invoked individually by SS3. 10 ANSI/IS0 4873-l 991 At Level 2 no other shift functions shall be used. The Gl set shall not be empty; either the G2 or the G3 set may be empty but not both. The Cl set shall not be empty, it shall contain at least the s

44、ingle-shift functions SS2 and SS3. 8.3 Level 3 Level 3, see figure 4, comprises all the facilities of Level 2, with the addition of the following three shift functions: - LSIR - LSZR - LS3R The Cl set shall not be empty; either the G2 or the G3 set may be, but not both. The Gl, G2 and G3 sets can be

45、 invoked explicitly by LSIR, LSZR and LS3R. respectively. Individual characters of the G2 and G3 sets can be invoked by SS2 and SS3, respectively.

47、) Restrictions applicable to the CO and Cl sets The definition of some control functions in this International Standard assumes that data associated with them is to be processed serially in a forward direction. When they are included in strings of data which are processed other than serially in a fo

48、rward direction or when these control functions are included in data formatted for fixed-record processing they may have undesirable effects or may require additional special treatment to ensure that they result in their desired function. Whilst this International Standard specifies requirements for

49、 bit combinations 0004, oo/lS and 01111 of the CO set, it places the following restrictions on the use of the remaining 29 bit combinations: 4 b) c) If control characters described in the CO set of ISOflEC 6429 are used, they shall have the coded representations and the definitions specified therein. None of these control characters may be allocated to the Cl set. Transmission control characters are intended to control or facilitate transmission of information over telecommunication networks.
