Enable/Disable Code 39 Full Ascii - Symbol LS1900 Series Product Reference Manual

Enable/Disable Code 39 Full ASCII

To enable or disable Code 39 Full ASCII, scan the appropriate bar code below.
When enabled, the ASCII character set assigns a code to letters, punctuation marks,
numerals, and most control keystrokes on the keyboard.
The first 32 codes are non-printable and are assigned to keyboard control characters such
as BACKSPACE and RETURN. The other 96 are called printable codes because all but
SPACE and DELETE produce visible characters.
Code 39 Full ASCII interprets the bar code special character ($ + % /) preceding a Code
39 character and assigns an ASCII character value to the pair. For example, when Code
39 Full ASCII is enabled and a +B is scanned, it is interpreted as b, %J as ?, and $H
emulates the keystroke BACKSPACE. Scanning ABC$M outputs the keystroke equivalent
of ABC ENTER. Refer to
The scanner does not autodiscriminate between Code 39 and Code 39 Full ASCII.
Note: Trioptic Code 39 and Code 39 Full ASCII cannot be enabled
simultaneously. If you get an error beep when enabling Trioptic Code
39, disable Code 39 Full ASCII and try again.
