- Assign wildcard to variable?: Check this box to specify the value of a User Variable using the <*> wildcard. Select the User Variable to modify using the dropdown menu to the right. The Specify serial input field must contain the <any> <*> wildcard, either by itself or with additional text (e.g. "message_<any><*>").

Wildcards are only supported when the serial port is using the ASCII protocol, not when using the Binary protocol. |

It is possible to check both Assign input to variable and Input specifies variable boxes for more complex functionality. For example, you can use Specify fixed variable to assign the entire serial input string to one variable, while at the same time using Assign wildcard to variable to assign a subset of that string to another variable. |
