HP 7550A Emulation [KC-GL] (Mode 8) Setting the Scaling Points At power-up, scaling point P1 will be in the lower left corner of the paper, the default plot position. Point P2 is always diagonally opposite to P1. These two points define the diagonal of a rectangle, which by default is centered on the paper. P1 and P2 can be moved by an instruction which defines any rectangle, independent of the actual paper size. The default positions of the scaling points in modes A and B are listed at the end of this section as Coordinate Values. Sample KC-GL Program The following file draws circles according to the KC-GL instructions. The result appears in Figure 7. 30. on page 102.
