+ | The information is collated in the **Format** field. The example above contains the measurement value and a terminator character, Return (ASCII 13). You can also add additional characters. Non-displayable characters are shown as hexadecimals in chevron brackets. In this example <x0D> represents Return. Additional placeholders are listed in which you can create output text, for instance to move from one cell to the next in an Excel table. | ||
