The modifiers are as those for the variables.

The program and printer process the text and barcode data in the following order:

·

They get the subsequent element.

·

If the element is a variable or a counter, they get the current value. The text is

formatted depending on its definition. All the modifiers are executed from left to right.
·

If the element is date or time, it is formatted as was set in Label Setup.

·

The resulting text is then added at the end of the text that was a result from the

preceding elements.
·

The procedure continues till data finishes.


Examples:

“Date:”TD” Time: “TT

will generate Date: 12.JAN.2003 Time: 16:30

“Expiry Date: “TD+90

will generate the text Expiry Date: 16.04.2003

if the current date is 16.01.2003.

“Price:”V2

will generate Price: 1.20

if the value of the variable V2 is “1.20” at the moment.

V0> < C1L3

will generate a string with a variable V0 with leading and end spaces removed and a
counter C1 with the three left symbols removed.

V0L1V0M3.2V0R1

will generate a string that includes the first, third, forth and last symbol of the variable
V0.
