Compare characters
FE
Compare the character in the current cursor position to the cha
racter “xx.” If characters are
equal, move the cursor forward one position.
Syntax = FExx
where xx stands for the
comparison charact
er’s hex value for its ASCII code.
Refer to the
ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252),
for decimal, hex
and character codes.
Compare string
B2
Compare the string
in the input message to the string “s.” If the strings are equal, move t
he
cursor forward past the end of the string. Syntax = B2nnnnS where nnnn is the string length
(up to 9999), and S consists of the ASCII hex value of each character in the match string. For
example, B2000454657374 will compare the string at the current cursor position with the 4
character string “Test.”
Refer to the
ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252),
for decimal, hex
and character codes.
Check for a number
EC
Check to make sure there is an ASCII number at the current cursor position. The format is
aborted if the character is not numeric.
EC Example: Only output the data if the barcode begins with a number
If you want only data from barcodes that begin with a number, you can use EC to check for
the number.
Command string:
ECF10D
EC is the “Check
for a number” command
F1 is the “Send all characters” command
0D is the hex value for a CR
If this barcode is read,
the next data format, if there is one, will be used on
the data. If there is no other format, the format fails and the raw data is output as
AB1234
.
If this barcode is read:
the data is output as:
1234AB
<CR>
