When uploading as a keyboard into an Excel spreadsheet, it is not quite as
simple. You will have to set the Terminator Character to None, and then
you will have to Upload Prefixes in each for each program data collection
step. Excel usually requires delays between moving to the next column.
Let's assume we are going to upload data collected in the default Program
#1, Item and Quantity, into Excel. The suffixes in the default program are
none. We will change them to adapt to Excel.
2. Program the Upload Prefix and Upload Suffix
After setting the Terminator Character to NONE, the next step is to
enter PROGRAMMING MODE and program the Upload Suffix for
each field of data. For Program #1, we will program the Upload Suffix
as follows:
Statement Prompt
ENTER ITEM NO.
ENTER QUANTITY
−
Put the TriCoder in PROGRAMMING MODE
−
Press 1 at the Create Programs prompt (to edit program #1)
−
Press YES at the EDIT PROGRAM #1? prompt
If you have no data collected in the TriCoder, press ENTER until you
see:
Scan the bar code on the Full ASCII Menu for TAB, the one labeled HT
(ASCII10). Then scan the bar code DEL (ASCII 127) on the Full ASCII
TAB (HT on the full ASCII menu) DEL (ASCII 127) 05
CR (Enter) (Left Arrow, ASCII 19) DEL (ASCII 127) 05
