Wildcard Character
Placeholder Character
Wildcard/Placeholder Matches
Both Wildcard Character and Placeholder Character can be mixed in the same fil-
ter data.
You can regard wildcard marks as the end of matching, whereas a placeholder
requires identical data both before and after the placeholder.
Definition: Wildcard Character indicates that any number of characters that fol-
low the wildcard will be regarded as matches.
For example, “123*” will match “123”, “123456”, “123ABC”, but not
“12”.
Filter data ”123*AB?C” will be interpreted as “123*”
Both Wildcard Character and Placeholder Character can be mixed
in the same filter data.
Serial Cmd: <K744,filter#,code type,length,wildcard character,placeholder char-
acter,data>
Default: 2A (*)
Options: Any pairings of hex digits representing an ASCII character; for
example, 2A = *
(00 = disabled)
Definition: Placeholder Character is a type of wild card that requires identical
data position.
For example, Filter data “123?”, will match all of the “1234”, “123A”,
but not “123”, “12345”, “1234C”.
Filter data “123?A” will match “1234A” and “123BA”, but not “123”,
“1234C” or “1234ABCD”
Both Wildcard Character and Placeholder Character can be mixed
in the same filter data.
Serial Cmd: <K744,filter#,code type,length,wildcard character,placeholder char-
acter,data>
Default: 3F (?)
Options: Any ASCII input as pair of hex digit; e.g., 3F=’?’
(00 = disabled)
