Using ADF Bar Codes

To program each data formatting rule:
•
Start the Rule. Scan the
•
Criteria. Scan the bar codes for all pertinent criteria. Criteria can include code type (e.g., Code 128), code
length, or data that contains a specific character string (e.g., the digits "129"). These options are described in
Criteria on page 14-9.
•
Actions. Scan all actions related to, or affecting, these criteria. The actions of a rule specify how to format
the data for transmission. These options are described in ADF Bar Code Menu Example on page 14-3.
•
Save the Rule. Scan the
rule buffer.

If you make errors during this process, some special-purpose bar codes may be useful:
Start Again bar code on page
Saved Rule bar code on page
Criteria, actions, and entire rules may be erased by scanning the appropriate bar code (see bar codes beginning
on page 14-9).
