Search forward for a string
B0 Search forward for “s” string from the current cursor position, leaving cursor 
pointing to “s” string. Syntax = B0nnnnS, 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, B0000454657374 will search forward for the first occurrence of the 4 
character string “Test.” Refer to the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252) on 
page 214 for decimal, hex, and character codes.
B0 Example: Send barcode data that starts after a string of characters
Search for the letters “FGH” in barcodes and send all the data that follows, 
including “FGH.”  Using the barcode above:
Command string: B00003464748F10D
B0 is the “Search forward for a string” command
0003 is the string length (3 characters)
46 is the hex value for “F”
47 is the hex value for “G”
48 is the hex value for “H”
F1 is the “Send all characters” command
0D is the hex value for a CR
The data is output as: 
FGHIJ
<CR>
Search backward for a string
B1 Search backward for “s” string from the current cursor position, leaving cursor 
pointing to “s” string. Syntax = B1nnnnS, 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, B1000454657374 will search backward for the first occurrence of the 
4 character string “Test.” Refer to the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252) on 
page 214 for decimal, hex and character codes.
Search forward for a non-matching character
E6 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) on page 214 for decimal, hex and 
character codes.
