Global Prefix - Datalogic Magellan 8300 Product Reference Manual

Global Prefix

NOTE
Product Reference Guide
This feature specifies the prefix that is added to beginning of label
transmission.
To specify the Global Prefix Character(s):
1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.
2. Scan the bar code, SET GLOBAL PREFIX on page 176 below.
You'll need to cover any unused bar codes to ensure the scan-
ner reads only the bar code you intend to scan.
3. Scan the appropriate characters/digits from the keypad in
Appendix C that represent the hex designation for the desired
character(s). A table containing the ASCII Character Set on
page 1 and their corresponding Hex Values is available in the
inside back cover of this manual. ASCII parameters must be
input by scanning a pair of hexadecimal digits for each char-
acter. Thus, to set a two-character value of AB, bar codes con-
taining the digits '4', '1', '4', and '2' must be scanned. The
selectable range for this option is any hex value from 00 to FF.
Up to 20 hex pairs can be designated.
To specify "no Global Prefix," scan 00.
4. If designating the full 20 hex pairs, the scanner will automati-
cally exit Programming Mode when the appropriate amount of
digits have been scanned. If designating less than 20 hex
pairs, you can end the programming sequence early by scan-
ning the TERMINATE SEQUENCE on page 176 bar code.
5. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
bar code.
