Posted 7 Feb 2018 (edited) I am using an Omron NJ controller and a Cognex Dataman 260 bar-code scanner. At this point I can trigger the scanner and receive data from the scanner via ethernet/ip. My issue is in converting the response from the scanner to something human readable. The bar-code I scanned reads "872-3GSq". The results of the scan are located in the variable Dataman_to_NJ[8]-[11]. At some point I know I need to use the SWAP function but I believe my lack of data type knowledge in this system is hindering me. How can I convert the value in Dataman_to_NJ[8] to the string "87"? Any assistance would be appreciated. Edited 7 Feb 2018 by Jayloo75 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 9 Feb 2018 The above code shows what could be done to convert one word. An array of consecutive words could be used in the same fashion to convert to an array of bytes and then that could be converted to a longer string using the same two lines of code.
