Configurable Filters: Replace... ( Continued - Example)

We can see in the example above that the filter is set to replace all appearances of capital letter A in read data, with capital letter B.

If you want to use special characters (ones you cannot find on the keyboard) as a replacement or search pattern, you can enter the ASCII decimal value for the character you wish to enter, inside curly brackets.

 

By clicking the ASCII table button you are presented with an ASCII Table that can help you find decimal values of ASCII character(s) (0-255), you wish to enter.

 

In the example shown in the picture above we’ve defined the filter to replace all occurrences of characters with ASCII decimal values 13 and 10 ({13}{10}) with a character that has an ASCII decimal value of 9 ({9}) .
