Valid Characters

OMJSON writes only characters 0x08, 0x09, 0x0A, 0x0B, 0x0C, 0x0D, and 0x20-0x7F.

OMJSON handles unrecognized characters in text inputs by ignoring them.
Certain ASCII control, ASCII extended, and wide characters will not be written to the plc.

If a string contains both valid and invalid characters, valid characters are still written.
