Wildcards
There is an indicator which shows the current number of wildcards (19) and a display
field for inputs (20) . When you place the cursor in the display field a keyboard for data
inputs is displayed (21) . In the event of modifications of the number or the kind of the
wildcard character (23) the indicator (22) will be updated immediately. In the job editor
the defined <Wildcards> are shown as content of the <Extern text: variable length>
object (26) .
Wildcards for an <Extern Text:variable length> object have two functions:
1. The characters of the set wildcards represent the first character string that will be
displayed on the WYSIWYG display and printed. They will then be replaced by
the first received data.
2. Wildcards, together with the character offset, define the length of the input buffer
and therefore the maximum number of characters to be considered. If there are
more characters between the
<Start symbol> and the <End symbol> than
limited by the <Wildcards> settings only the defined number of characters
following the <Start symbol> will be used.
Character offset
With the character offset (24) you can define how many characters from the left side of
the received string will be ignored. You can set the character offset either with the arrow
keys of the display field
(24) or with the numeric keypad (25) displayed when placing the
cursor in the display field.
Example <Start symbol>, <End symbol>, <Wildcards>, <Character offset>:
Set start symbol: 65 = A
Set end symbol: 66 = B
Set wildcards: Displayed text: Wildcards = 9 characters = 9 wildcards
Set offset: 3
Display in the print preview of the main window as long as there were no data received :
Wildcards
Received data:
a b c A d e f g h i j k B l m n
Used data (with due regard to the Start symbol (A), the End symbol (B), the offset (O)
and the wildcards (W)):
a (A) b (A) c (A) A d (O) e (O) f (O) g (W) h (W) i (W) j(W) k (W) B l (B) m (B) n (B)
Display of the received data in the print preview of the main window:
ghijk
Result:
Due to the
<Start symbol> A the input buffer is filled starting with the transmitted
character A.
Due to the set <Offset> the first 3 characters of the received data are not used.
Due to the <Wildcards> only the first 9 characters of the remaining data are used.
Due to the <End symbol> B only all characters up to the B are used.
