• Replacement: The character, or characters that you want to replace the character with. These
can be standard or ASCII.
When you replace a character with one or more different characters, the results will be displayed in the

Up to 25 character replacements can be defined. If duplicates are defined, an error message will
appear, and only the first definition will be applied.
You can enter ASCII control characters by selecting the link below the input box. You can also enter
extended ASCII characters by entering \xHexadecimal. For example: \xFF.
The number of replacements that you've defined are displayed in the Format Output editor.
Basic Data Output Ordering
By default, the order the symbol data is inserted into the output string is the order in which they are
decoded. The output order can be controlled using the Global Sorting option from within the Format
Output dialog. This option must be turned on, and then the output order must be selected.
Global Sorting will apply to all codes found within a single image and ROI, as well as when using the
Configuration Database with multiple Images and ROIs, and with a Matrix.
Note 1: Global Sorting is turned on by default if the user has defined a Matrix.
Note 2: Global Sorting will be overridden when using custom sorting within the Format Output dialog.
Customer sorting will be described in the next section.
