String Format

When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the

host computer along with the bar code data. This group of bar code

data and additional, user-defined data is called a "message string."

The selections in this section are used to build the user-defined

data into the message string. Prefix and Suffix characters are data

characters that can be sent before and after scanned data. You can

specify if they should be sent with all symbologies, or only with

specific symbologies. The following illustration shows the

breakdown of a message string:

Prefix / Suffix characters setting: Characters defined as prefix or

suffix characters will be transmitted immediately with the scanned

data for all symbologies. Up to 11 ASCII characters can be defined

for both Prefix and Suffix.

Tips

• A prefix or suffix may be added or cleared from one symbology

or all symbologies.

• You can add any prefix or suffix f, plus Code I.D. and AIM

I.D.

• You can string together several entries for several symbologies at

one time.

• Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them

to appear on the output.

• When Setting up for specific symbologies, instead of All

Symbologies, the symbology ID value counts as an added prefix or

suffix character.
