7 APPLICATION INSTRUCTION

7.6 Character string operation instruction

389

Precautions

The LEN(P) instructions can handle character codes other than ASCII codes, but the character string length is handled in byte

units (8 bits). Accordingly, in the case of character codes in which 2 bytes express 1 character such as shift JIS codes, the

length of 1 character is detected as "2".

Operation error

Error code

(SD0/SD8067)

Description

2820 In the corresponding device range of the device specified by (s) and later, "00H" does not exist.

3405 The character string specified by (s) has more than 16383 characters.
