Data Format Options - Allen-Bradley 2755-HDG-4 User Manual

Data Format Options

The following options define the what happens to the data after a symbol
has been decoded:
Data Prefix / Suffix
To add prefix or suffix data to bar code data, scan the prefix or suffix bar
code followed by the 4 digit ASCII equivalent value for each character
(refer to Appendix D for the ASCII chart). Only one character may be
specified as a suffix or prefix. When you enter the last digit of a prefix
or suffix, the scanner lets you know that you have entered a valid value
by providing a high-low-high beep.
Data Transmission Formats
You can set whether or not prefix or suffix data is added to the decoded
symbol data. You have four options:
•
<DATA> only bar code data is sent
•
<PREFIX> <DATA> prefix data is sent then the bar code data
•
<DATA> <SUFFIX> bar code data is sent then the suffix data
•
<PREFIX><DATA><SUFFIX> prefix data is sent then bar code
data followed by the suffix data
Transmit NO READ Message
When enabled, a NR is transmitted with each no-read. If enabled, a
prefix and suffix will appear with the NR output message.
