• Code 39 Full ASCII

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. See the tables beginning on

page 2-23

Code 39 Full ASCII interprets the bar code control character ($ + % /)

preceding a Code 39 symbol and assigns an ASCII character value. For

example, when Code 39 Full ASCII is enabled and a +B is scanned, it will

be interpreted as b, %J as ?, and $H emulates the keystroke BACKSPACE.

Scanning ABC$M will output the keystroke equivalent of ABC ENTER.

The LS 3603 will not autodiscriminate between Code 39 and Code 39 Full

ASCII.

Select if decoded UPC symbols are transmitted with or without a check digit.

Use this parameter to convert UPC-E (zero suppressed) decoded data to

UPC-A format before transmission. After conversion, data will follow UPC

format and be affected by UPC-A programming selections (e.g., Preamble,

Check Digit).

This parameter adds five leading zeros to decoded EAN-8 symbols to make

them compatible in format to EAN-13 symbols.

This feature gives you the option to transmit "NR" when a symbol does not

decode. Prefixes and suffixes enabled will be appended around this message.
