Character Conversion
Character conversion is an eight byte configuration item. The eight
bytes are 4 character pairs represented in hexadecimal ASCII values. The
first character in the pair is the character that will be converted. The sec-
ond character in the pair is the character to convert to. If the character
to convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion is done.
For example, if you have the character conversion configuration item set
to the following: 41423132FFFFFFFF
The first pair is 4142 or AB (41 hex is an ASCII capital A, 42 hex is an
ASCII capital B) and the second pair is 3132 or 12 (31 hex is an ASCII
1, 32 is an ASCII 2). The other two pairs are FFFF and FFFF.
With the label, AB12BA21, it would look as follows after the character
conversion: BB22BB22.
The A characters were converted to B characters and the 1 characters
were converted to 2 characters. Nothing is done with the last two char-
acter pairs, since they are all FF.
To set Character Conversion:
1. Scan the START bar code.
2. Scan the Character Conversion bar code.
3. Determine the desired string. Sixteen positions must be deter-
mined as in the above example. Next, turn to the
the inside back cover of this manual and find the equivalent hex
digits needed to fulfill the string.
4. Turn to

resenting the hex characters determined in the previous step.
5. Scan the END bar code to exit Programming Mode.
If less than the expected string of 16 characters are
selected, scan the END bar code twice to accept the
selections and exit Programming Mode.
NOTE
