Output Format Overview - Microscan MS-860 User Manual

Output Format Overview

Output Format consists of a set of criteria expressed in Extraction and Insertion
serial or ESP menu commands that can be chained together to control the presentation
of data that is transmitted from decoded symbols. If a symbol does not meet the
defined criteria, it is treated as a noread.
Note that Extraction and Insertion functions are independent of Ordered Output
criteria. The output format control can also work with all standard read modes such as
Matchcode, Multisymbol etc.
Commands can be chained together in an array of as many as 100 steps and applied to
any symbol.
Output Format Status
Definition: Output Format Status is a "master switch" that controls Output For-
mat. Extraction and/or Insertion commands must be defined before
an output occurs.
ESP: When you set up Output Format in the ESP Output Format menu and
click on Apply in the same menu, Output Format Status will be
changed to Enable in the reader and displayed as such in the Outputs
configuration menu after you send a Retrieve Reader Settings com-
mand.
You can also enable/disable Output Format from the Outputs menu
by double-clicking on Output Format.
