Chapter 4 Data Editing; Prefix/Suffix Overview - Datalogic PowerScan 7000 2D Product Reference Manual

NOTE

Prefix/Suffix Overview

When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the host
computer along with the bar code data. This group of bar code data and
additional, user-defined data is called a "message string." The selections
in this section are used to build the user-defined data into the message
string.
Prefix and Suffix characters are data characters that can be sent before
and after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all
symbologies, or only with specific symbologies. The following illustra-
tion shows the breakdown of a message string:
Prefix
1-11
alpha numeric
characters
