Perform a wildcard search

The Search box supports the use of an asterisk (*) as a wildcard character. A maximum of 4 search terms, separated by the * character, is supported. For example, enter
16*ac*isolated*1756
when searching for a module like the 1756-IA16I, 16 point 79-132V AC Isolated Input module. Not all modules contain descriptive information (like 16 point, 8 point). Those terms are used in this example solely for the purpose of demonstrating the wildcard search feature.
Search is performed on all the displayed text of a given Module Type. This means that search is performed on the text in all the columns (except the
Category
column) of a given module type.
To perform a wildcard search
  1. In the Search box, enter the first criterion to search. For example, to find an 8 point input module, enter
    8 point
    as the first search term.
  2. Enter the wildcard character (*). The Search box now contains
    8 point*
    .
  3. Now enter the second search term. In this example, that would be
    inp
    (for input). The Search box now contains
    8 point*inp
    .
The Catalog Results list displays only those modules containing
8 point
and
inp
in the
