How to remove unwanted string

[Axix]

Hi,

I would like to know how to remove unwanted string?

For example  at my indicator I received

*<ANY NUMERIC KEY TO WAKE-UP (!0 TO 9!)>*

then only I get the second line

 01:24:30  23.10.15   00  0000.21  01  000.000  02  00000    03  00000.0  04 -0516.03  05 -034.063  06 <-20 UR   07  105.052

I would like to know how to remove the *<ANY NUMERIC KEY TO WAKE-UP (!0 TO 9!)>*

Is it really any number or does the string say "any number ..."?

Search and Replace String function

Replace it with an empty string.

Pretty basic string manipulation. Have you taken any of the free tutorials? Have you looked at the string palette? What have you tried?

[James.M]

Is the string says that specific thing always, then use the Search and Replace String function to replace it with whatever the heck you want. Done.

No

No to what? Please use complete sentences.

Come on, dude. You were just as non-descriptive in your first thread and  your last thread. We can't help you if you don't give us any information.

Please include a Snippet of your code, or attach your VIs, so that we can better assist you. We are here to help, but won't spend all day guessing what you need.

I feel like I've already wasted too much time on this thread.

Dennis,

I mean no.. I never attend any tutorial or watch any tutorial....

James,

I already attach the Vi

Okay... so you're using the string function correctly if that is how your string reads in from the serial port, but I'm wary of your VISA setup. Reading the number of bytes as equal to the baud rate is bogus. Look at your device communication and figure out exactly how many bytes at a time you should be reading, or use the timeout. My guess is that when you run your code right now, it sits for 10 seconds each loop before spitting out a string.

Is your original question answered/solved? Do you understand how to remove an unwanted string?
