Alternate Data Formats

Alternate formats allow you "single shot" capability to scan one bar code using a
different data format than your primary format. When data formats are pro-
grammed (see page 5-1), you must input whether you are programming the pri-
mary format, or an alternate format numbered 1, 2, or 3.
An alternate format is initiated by scanning one of the 3 alternate format bar
codes below. The image scanner will scan the next bar code, formatting the
data with the selected alternate format, then revert immediately to the primary
format.
