ADF Bar Code Menu Example

This section provides an example of how ADF rules are entered and used for scan data.
An auto parts distribution center wants to encode manufacturer ID, part number, and destination code into their own Code 128 bar
codes. The distribution center also has products that carry UPC bar codes, placed there by the manufacturer. The Code 128 bar codes
have the following format:
MMMMMPPPPPDD
Where:
M = Manufacturer ID
P = Part Number
D = Destination Code
The distribution center uses a PC with dedicated control characters for manufacturer ID <CTRL M>, part number <CTRL P>, and
destination code <CTRL D>. At this center the UPC data is treated as manufacturer ID code.
The following rules need to be entered:
When scanning data of code type Code 128, send the next 5 characters, send the manufacturer ID key <CTRL M>, send the next
5 characters, send the part number key <CTRL P>, send the next 2 characters, send the destination code key <CTRL D>.
When scanning data of code type UPC/EAN, send all data, send the manufacturer ID key <CTRL M>.
To enter these rules, follow the steps below:
