Text String Processing Instructions Section 3-33
Description RGHT$(653) reads the number of characters designated by S2, from the left
(the beginning) of the first word of the text string designated by S1 until the
NUL code (00 hex), and outputs the result to D (with NUL added at the end).
If the number of characters to be read exceeds the number of characters des-
ignated by S1, the entire S1 text string will be output.
If 0 (0000 hex) is designated as the number of characters to be read, the two
NUL characters (0000 hex) will be output to D.
Note RGHT$(653) can be processed in the background. Refer to the SYSMAC CS/
CJ/NSJ Series PLC Programming Manual (W394) for details.
Flags
Precautions The maximum number of characters to be read that can be designated by S2
is 4,095 (0FFF hex). If more than that are designated, an error will be gener-
ated and the Error Flag will turn ON.
If 0000 (hex) is output to D, the Equals Flag will turn ON.
Example In this example, RGHT$(653) is used to read four characters.
