Placeholder (wild cards)
The search for stored data can be made easier if a
placeholder is used instead of the complete point
number. In the TPS1000, a decimal point "." is used
instead of the more usual star "*", because it is more
easily entered. There is no entry corresponding to "?".
Example of the use of placeholders:

11.
11, 110, 1101, 11ABC5,
111111
.11
11, ABC11, 11111

10, 100, 1ABCD0,
11111110
.10.
10, 3410ABC, 111110,
1000000
.1.0.
10, 341ABC0, 1123Z0Y,
1001A000
If a number with placeholder is entered instead of the
complete point number, the controlled data search is
always started and the first matching data set is
displayed. The subsequent procedure is the same as
that used when entering a complete point number.
After 11 there can be any
character and in any
amount.
Before 11 there can be
any character and in any
amount.
Between 1 and 0 there
can be any character and
in any amount.
A 10 must be present at
least once.
A 1 must be present in
front of a 0 at least once,
and any amount of
characters can be present
between them.
