In addition to the above field delimiters, you can enter other delimiter types keeping in mind the following:
• ASCII hex format can be used as a delimiter
• a NULL character can be used as a delimiter (specified in ASCII hex format)
• Frame delimiters can be multi-character sequences up to 20 characters long
The PresencePLUS GUI includes a drop-down list of Field delimiters as follows:
<none> for no delimiter
, for comma
; for semi-colon
: for colon
<SPC> for space
\t for tab
In addition to the above field delimiters, you can enter other delimiter types keeping in mind the following:
• ASCII hex format can be used as a delimiter
• a NULL character can be used as a delimiter (specified in ASCII hex format)
• Field delimiters can be multi-character sequences up to 10 characters long

Character Strings

Communications Tool configured for Barcode or String Tool output may produce strings that contain non-printable

ASCII characters, such as carriage returns, line feeds, and characters in the upper ASCII range.
To output these strings, the following encoding rules are used:
• Tool output strings will be enclosed in double quote characters, “.
• Any non-printable ASCII character, including NULL, will be converted to its ASCII Hex equivalent. The ASCII Hex

string will be preceded by character sequence “\x” (backslash-lower-case-x). The ASCII Hex string will always be

two characters long. For example, NULL will be converted to “\x00”, and carriage return will be converted to “\x0D”.

To represent ASCII Hex digits, only upper case letters, A-F, will be used.

• Any backslash encountered in the Barcode or String Tool data will be converted to its ASCII Hex equivalent, “\x5C”.
• Any double quote encountered in the Barcode or String Tool will be converted to its ASCII Hex equivalent, “\x22”.
For RCC input strings, the formatting rules are expanded to accommodate readability as follows:
• Carriage return can be specified as character sequence "\r" (backslash-r).
• Line feed can be specified as character sequence "\n" (backslash-n).
• Double quote can be specified as character sequence "\"" (backslash-doublequote).
• Backslah can be specified as character sequence "\\" (backslash-backslash).
• tab can be specified as character sequence "\t" (backslash-t).
• Embedded NULLL characters are not allowed.
