Description

Example

sdmFourteenSegment

Each character display block (section) of the digital scale consists of fourteen bar-shaped segments. Provides a broad selection of displayed characters. In this mode, a digital scale displays both the upper- and lowercase characters identically.

sdmSevenSegment

Each character display block (section) of the digital scale consists of seven bar-shaped segments. In this case, the scale is unable to display a custom text string, since this mode provides a very limited selection of displayed characters. If the Value string contains non-supported characters, the scale does not display them.

sdmMatrix5x8Dots

Each character display block (section) of the digital scale consists of 40 dots forming the rectangular matrix. This mode supports all Unicode characters. Unlike the sdmFourteenSegment mode, in this case, an unbound or data-aware digital scale displays the upper- and lowercase characters distinguishably.

sdmMatrix5x8Squares

As in the case of the sdmMatrix5x8Dots mode, each character display block (section) of the digital scale consists of 40 square elements forming the rectangular matrix. This mode provides the same broad selection of distinguishable upper- and lowercase Unicode characters. However, in the sdmMatrix5x8Squares mode each display section element is a square, hence the name.

sdmMatrix8x14Dots

This mode is similar to sdmMatrix5x8Dots, however, each character display section (matrix) of the digital scale consists of 112 dots instead of 40. This mode provides the same broad selection of distinguishable upper- and lowercase Unicode characters.

sdmMatrix8x14Squares

This mode looks very similar to sdmMatrix8x14Dots, however, each character display section (matrix) in a digital scale consists of squares instead of dots. This mode provides the same broad selection of distinguishable upper- and lowercase Unicode characters.

This type is referenced by a digital scale’s DisplayMode property.
