Here is the code I am working with-
while (my $file = <DATA>) {
    $file =~ /(\d+)(lc|pp)/i or next;
    my $posA = uc "$1$2-";
#    $file =~ /(sh|lic)/i or next;
#    my $posB = uc $1;
    $file =~ /(800|2621|3524|6509|7206)(s-|r-)/i or next;
    my $dv = uc "$1$2";
    $file =~ /([a-z]+)(\d+)/i or next;
    my $loc = uc "$1$2";
    print "$posA" or die;
#    print "$posB" or die;
    print "$dv" or die;
    print "$loc" or die;
    print "\n";
}

__DATA__
1lc-2621s-RT02-9FL
2pp-3524-7FL
PP_800c_-RT1-TX
10lc-7206-3FL-SW02

02PP-3524#-DEVICE#-07FL-STATE
#PP-800C-RT01-#FL-TX
10LC-7206#-SW02-03FL-NY
#LC-6509R-DEVICE#-#FL-GA

Device# if missing RT#, FW#, or SW# etc. STATE if missing 2 digits state info like, NY, FL etc. #FL, if missing floor#.
