Control String – Input Actions
The table below lists the commands available to interpret the information coming back into the Serial Channel from the
serial device. Input actions are not enclosed by
{}
in the control string.
Expected data
Input Action syntax
Description
Characters
text
For each character in the input action string, the
DT80
will
read and discard all incoming characters from the serial
device until that particular character is seen. It then discards
the matching character and starts looking for the next
character in the input action text.
For example, if the input action string is
abc
and the input
data from the serial device is
3c3aabaAAc123
then all
characters up to and including the second "
c
" will match, i.e.
they will be read and discarded.
Non-printable characters may be specified using
\
nnn
(where
nnn
is the ASCII code, 1-255).
^
char
notation may
also be used for control characters (ASCII 1-31), see
.
To include a literal
%
,
{
or
}
character, use
\%
or
\{
or
\}
respectively.

wait up to

\w[

Delay for

approximately 2ms or 2 character times, whichever is longer.

\e
Clear all previously received characters from the receive
buffer
Fixed text string
\m[

or
\m[

Read and discard incoming characters until the exact string
text
(or the text in
n

string
Numeric data
%

type
{
[
n
CV]
}
e.g.
%d[2CV]
,
%9f
Interpret the received data according to the specified numeric
format and store the result into
n
CV. If the
[
n
CV]
is not
specified, the result will be returned as the return value of the
channel. Note that
{ }
signifies "optional"
String data
%

type
[
n
$]
e.g.
%6s[5$]
Interpret the received data according to the specified string
format and store the result into
n
$
Data to skip
%*
{width}
type
e.g.
%*6s
,
%*f
Interpret the received data according to the specified
numeric/string format but do not store the result. In other
words, skip over this data value.

e.g.
%9s['goose','moose',23CV=2]
If the incoming string matches
str1
then set
n
CV=0
If the incoming string matches
str2
then set
n
CV=1
If the incoming string matches
str3
then set
n
CV=2 (etc.)
If a default value (
=
m
) is specified and the incoming string
matches none of the strings then set
n
CV=
m
Numeric and String Formats
These tables describe the possible values for
type
– that is, the different ways in which the incoming string of characters
can be interpreted.
