Chapter 4 Data Editing

Introduction

After the scanner successfully reads the code, the device obtains a string of data, which
can be numbers, English, symbols, etc. In practical applications, we may not only need the
data information of the bar code, or the data information contained in the bar code
cannot meet your needs. For example, you may want to know which type of bar code this
string of data information comes from, or attach special data to this string of data, which
may not be included in the data information of the bar code.
Adding these content when making codes will inevitably increase the length of the bar
code and is not flexible enough, which is not a recommended practice. At this time, we
thought of artificially adding some content before or after the barcode data information,
and these added content can be changed in real time according to needs, and you can
choose to add or block. This is the prefix and suffix of the barcode data information. ,
Which not only satisfies the demand but does not need to modify the content of the
barcode information.
Note: Data editing format: <Code ID><custom prefix><barcode data><custom
suffix><terminator>
