I have a code come back that look like this uu263401, so in need for the triger to only see uu2<mask>01. each number is an input and the last two is unit address. let know the best way to make this work. mark

As mentioned before, more complex parsing like that should be handled through MLScript... Though uu2<mask>01 should work fine.

l'm still having problem to get it working, what i need to do is to have a start mask and end so i can have the first three number not seen only put the 4 number in variable and remove the last 2 number.
so unit send back uu111801. can i use <start>uu111<mask>01<end>
or is there away i can do it this way uu<mask1><mask2><mask3><mask4>01, then i could have a macro|setvariable|<device>_output1~<mask1>!setvariable|<device>_output2~<mask2>.and so on


please let me know how to do this mark

But uu111<mask>01 already does that... I don't see what the <start> and <end> are supposed to be adding...


No, the logic only supports 1 mask. But using uu<mask>01, and parsing mask either through MLScript or MLString, you should be able to do what you want...

OK, then how do i write command , if the unit return 1246 and i what to have 4 variable show output1 2,output2 2 output3 4 output4 6
let me know mark

Sorry, I had never used MLString, so thought David might know how...

Macro|MLStrings|Left~output1~<Mask>~1!MLStrings|Mid~outputr2~<Mask>~2~1!MLStrings|Mid~output3~<Mask>~3~1!MLStrings|Right~output4~<Mask>~1

Thank you that works perfect, that give me some understanding of how it works. Mark
