F9—Search backward for a character
Search the input message backward for “xx” character from the current cursor
position, leaving the cursor pointing to the “xx” character. Syntax = F9xx where xx
stands for the search character’s hex value for its ASCII code.
Refer to the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), beginning on page 174 for
decimal, hex and character codes.
E6—Search forward for a non-matching character
Search the input message forward for the first non-“xx” character from the current
cursor position, leaving the cursor pointing to the non-“xx” character. Syntax = E6xx
where xx stands for the search character’s hex value for its ASCII code. Refer to the
ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), beginning on page 174 for decimal, hex
and character codes.
Example: Remove zeroes at the beginning of bar code data
This example shows a bar code that has been zero filled. You may want to ignore
the zeroes and send all the data that follows. E6 searches forward for the first char-
acter that is not zero, then sends all the data after, followed by a carriage return.
Using the bar code above:
Command string: E630F10D
The data is output as:
37692
<CR>
E7—Search backward for a non-matching character
Search the input message backward for the first non-“xx” character from the cur-
rent cursor position, leaving the cursor pointing to the non-“xx” character. Syntax =
E7xx where xx stands for the search character’s hex value for its ASCII code. Refer
to the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), beginning on page 174 for deci-
mal, hex and character codes.
