Technostring('Index','Begin',End')

Arguments

'Index'

Index of the data file

'Begin'

Start of the range to be read out

'End'

End of the range to be read out

Description

This function extracts the string from the data file index 'Index' between 'Begin' and 'End'. The default start index is 0. This means that it is possible to interpret information from the technostring as signals (numerical characters only).

The technostring information displayed in the Info branch in the signal tree window is evaluated. The precondition is, of course, that ibaPDA saved the technostring information in the data file.

'Begin' and 'End' correspond to the position of the characters in the technostring which limit the range to evaluate as a signal. Only numerical characters can be evaluated. Leading zeros are ignored.

The 'Index' only has to be entered if several data files are open at the same time. The file in the topmost position in the signal tree window has the index 0. All the other files, from top to bottom, then have the index 1, 2, and so forth. The index must always be 0 if only one file is open.
