O-String 
Format: 
O-STR  , P, N, 
O-String always applies to the original data. It contains two parameters. The first is position 
parameter (P) that specifies the start output position in the original data. Parameter N tells how 
many characters will be included beginning from P. 
Example: 
Original data is: 
Barcode 
Then 
O-Str , 4, 4, 
Gives output as 
code 
Note: 
-- N can be '#' for all remaining characters from P. 
-- If P greater than the length of original data, the O-String will be skipped. 
-- If N greater than the number of remaining characters counting from P, the remaining 
characters are included as valid. 
Examples 
Example 1 
If the original data is Code 39 and content is "AA", output "ABC Company", and otherwise 
output the original data as it is. 
IN_ID,0,LEN,2,2,MATCH,1,"AA","ABC company",Enter 
IN_ID,19,O-STR,1,#,Enter 
Example 2 
If the original data is Code 128 and logically divided into: 
-- First six characters are personal ID, 
-- Other characters are person's name. 
The output will be: 
-- Personal ID first, 
-- A 'CR' character, 
-- Two interblock delay, 
-- Name, 
-- A 'CR' character. 
The Formula will be: 
IN_ID,8,O-STR,1,6,"<CR>**",O-STR,7,#,"<CR>",Enter 
<CR> is a Carriage Return character scanned from Full ASCII Chart.
