Access:
The operation of these parameters differs for Key Message and Block modes. The mode is
determined by the Send key Message (Wedge) parameter on the Main tab:
Key Message mode sends the prefix, barcode, and suffix as keystrokes to the application with the
input focus.
In Block mode the prefix and suffix are added to the beginning and end of the buffered barcode
data that can then be read from the WDG0: device by an application.
The title of the group box containing the Prefix and Suffix reflects the currently selected mode.
Key Message is displayed when in Key Message mode and Block is displayed when in Block
mode.
Adjust the settings and click the OK box to save the changes. The changes take effect
immediately.

Translate Control Codes

Translate Control Codes checkbox is available on the Advanced tab in Version 7.11. The
equivalent checkbox is located on the Control Characters tab in Version 7.13 as Translate All.

enabled, unprintable ASCII characters (characters below 20H) in scanned barcodes are translated
to their appropriate control code key sequence.
When "Translate Control Codes" is disabled and "Send Key Messages (WEDGE)" is enabled,
unprintable ASCII characters in scanned barcodes are discarded. Unprintable ASCII characters are
passed through as is to the reading application in Block mode.
