OPS > SIT > Card > Pattern
Note: This property is relevant only when operators sign in using customized cards (the OPS > SIT > Card > Format value is Custom).

Specifies the pattern of information on a customized card. The pattern includes groups of characters with specified numbers of characters or separated by delimiters.

Syntax

[start][infoName1][{#ofCharacters1}|delimiter1]...[infoNamen][{#of Charactersn}|delimitern][end]

Where:

  • start is a character that marks the start of the pattern
  • infoName1 is the name of the first group of characters
  • #ofCharacters1 is the number of characters in the infoName1 group
  • delimiter1 is a character that marks the end of the infoName1 group
  • infoNamen is the name of the last group of characters in the pattern
  • #ofCharactersn is the number of characters in the infoNamen group
  • delimitern is a character that marks the end of the infoNamen group
  • end is a character that marks the end of the pattern

Example:

;info1{6}info2{94}info3=info4{5}info5$info6{6}?

In this example, each pattern of information starts with a semi-colon, and includes the following groups of characters:

  • a group of 6 characters (info1)
  • a group of characters (info2) that ends with the character with decimal code 94 (^)
  • a group of characters (info3) that ends with an equals sign (=)
  • a group of 5 characters (info4)
  • a group of characters (info5) that ends with a dollar sign ($)
  • a group of 6 characters (info6)

The pattern of information ends with a question mark (?)

In this example, a card could have the following information:

;070100some text^3413=12345john doe$070104?

The information on this card would be divided into the following groups:

  • info1 = 070100
  • info2 = some text
  • info3 = 3413
  • info4 = 12345
  • info5 = john doe
  • info6 = 070104
