Enable/Disable Code 39 Full ASCII

To enable or disable Code 39 Full ASCII, scan the appropriate bar code below.
When enabled, the ASCII character set assigns a code to letters, punctuation
marks, numerals, and most control keystrokes on the keyboard.
The first 32 codes are non-printable and are assigned to keyboard control
characters such as BACKSPACE and RETURN. The other 96 are called
printable codes because all but SPACE and DELETE produce visible characters.
Code 39 Full ASCII interprets the bar code special character ($ + % /) preceding
a Code 39 character and assigns an ASCII character value to the pair. For
example, when Code 39 Full ASCII is enabled and a +B is scanned, it is
interpreted as b, %J as ?, and $H emulates the keystroke BACKSPACE.
Scanning ABC$M will output the keystroke equivalent of ABC ENTER. Refer
to the ASCII table in Appendix A.
Code 39 Full ASCII and Trioptic Code 39 cannot be enabled simultaneously. If
you get an error beep when enabling Code 39 Full ASCII, disable Trioptic Code
39 and try again.
The scanner does not autodiscriminate between Code 39 and Code 39 Full
ASCII.
