for the hex value for an ASCII code, see

ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252)

, page A-3.)

F2 Send “nn” characters followed by “xx” key or function code, starting from current cursor position. Syntax = F2nnxx (nn

stands for the numeric value (00-99) for the number of characters and xx stands for the hex value for an ASCII code. See

ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252)

, page A-3.)

F3 Send up to but not including “ss” character (Search and Send) starting from current cursor position, leaving cursor pointing

to “ss” character followed by “xx” key or function code. Syntax = F3ssxx (ss and xx both stand for the hex values for ASCII

codes, see

ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252)

, page A-3.)

F4 Send “xx” character “nn” times (Insert) leaving cursor in current cursor position. Syntax = F4xxnn (xx stands for the hex

value for an ASCII code, see

ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252)

, page A-3, and nn is the numeric value (00-99) for

the number of times it should be sent.)

E9 Send all but the last “nn” characters, starting from the current cursor position. Syntax = E9nn (nn is the numeric value

(00-99) for the number of characters that will not be sent at the end of the message.)

Move Commands

F5 Move the cursor ahead “nn” characters from current cursor position.

Syntax = F5nn

(nn stands for the numeric value (00-99) for the number of characters the cursor should be moved ahead.)

F6 Move the cursor back “nn” characters from current cursor position.

Syntax = F6nn

(nn stands for the numeric value (00-99) for the number of characters the cursor should be moved back.)

F7 Move the cursor to the beginning of the data string. Syntax = F7.
EA Move the cursor to the end of the data string. Syntax = EA

Search Commands

F8 Search ahead for “xx” character from current cursor position, leaving cursor pointing to “xx” character. Syntax = F8xx (xx

stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see

ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252)

, page A-3.)

F9 Search back for “xx” character from current cursor position, leaving cursor pointing to “xx” character. Syntax = F9xx (xx

stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see

ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252)

, page A-3.)

E6 Search ahead for the first non “xx” character from the current cursor position, leaving cursor pointing to non “xx” character.

Syntax = E6xx

(xx stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see

ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252)

, page A-3.

E7 Search back for the first non “xx” character from the current cursor position, leaving cursor pointing to non “xx” character.

Syntax = E7xx

(xx stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see

ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252)

, page A-3.)

Miscellaneous Commands

FB Suppress all occurrences of up to 15 different characters, starting at the current cursor position, as the cursor is advanced

by other commands. When the FC command is encountered, the suppress function is terminated. The cursor is not moved

by the FB command. Syntax = FBnnxxyy . .zz where nn is a count of the number of suppressed characters in the list and

xxyy .. zz is the list of characters to be suppressed. (xx stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see

ASCII Conversion

Chart (Code Page 1252)

, page A-3.)

FC Disables suppress filter and clear all suppressed characters. Syntax = FC.
E4 Replaces up to 15 characters in the data string with user specified characters. Replacement continues until the E5 com-

mand is encountered. Syntax = E4nnxx

where nn is the total count of both characters to be replaced

plus replacement characters; xx

defines replacement characters, continuing

through zz

1

and zz

.

E5 Terminates character replacement. Syntax = E5.
FE Compare character in current cursor position to the character “xx.” If characters are equal, increment cursor. If characters

are not equal, no format match. Syntax = FExx (xx stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see

, page A-3.)

EC Check to make sure there is an ASCII number at the current cursor position. If character is not numeric, format is aborted.

Syntax = EC
