Conveyer Direction Input
Select Trigger (Input 1) or Aux (Input 3) from the drop-down list. The selection

SW Divide Encoder Frequency
Select the check box to enable. If selected, the encoder frequency value is divided
by two before it is transmitted to the Host. This parameter only effects the value
contained in the <Encoder> field of the messages sent from the scanner to the
Host.
Message Definition
Header

Code Field Length Setting
Select Fixed Length or Variable Length from the drop-down list. This parameter is

barcode to be sent to the host. No separator character will be added between the
AIM prefix and the barcode.
AM/PM Behavior
Select the check box to enable. If enabled, the Host is ready to receive the following
message:
where:
<COMMAND> = 'A' indicates that the Host starts working in AM mode / 'P'
indicates that the Host starts working in PM (default) mode
When working in AM mode:
each code is only filtered by the Encoder Timeout parameter;
the Purolator Custom Check parameter is not effective; the Heartbeat message will
never be transmitted; the transmitted message is not subject to padding with the
Fill Character and the output message format is the following:
128
to activate the Text Entry Tool and create a heartbeat message in the field
Variable: All possible code field lengths (in number of characters/digits)
allowed for the code selected are accepted
Fixed: The code is entirely transmitted even if it is longer than the defined
length. If shorter, it will be transmitted with the addition of the Fill Character.
