Hello
I am having an issue I am hoping someone can help with. I have an OCR camera system (Keyence CV-X402F) that is extracting an engraved serial number off a part that we are wanting to send to our MES so that it can use that serial number for tracking build information. I am sending the recognized string via Ethernet_IP to an AB 1769-L30ER as a DINT with an ASCII value. My MES needs to pick that up as human readable in order to work correctly. The serial number is 9 characters long and is stored in 9 different address'. I have been able to use the concatenate block to get it to one location and together but I cannot figure out how to convert it to its human readable form (seeing an M instead of 77). I have tried to use the DTOS block both before and after my concatenation but I always end up with just a string of ASCII code. This is what I am getting after is has been concatenated, 775048515451665057, which is correct, when you split it out it does translate to what I want, M20363B29. What do I need to do in the program itself for my final result to be M20363B29 instead of 775048515451665057? I am literally at my wits end and any help would be extremely appreciated.
Thanks
