RF Programming Manual
The scanner will not transmit a label ID character if its hex value is set
to zero. If you have determined that you need a Label ID that contains
only a single character, follow this modified procedure:
1. Scan the SET bar code on page on page 68.
2. Scan your selection from the list starting on page 68 for the
symbology identifier you plan to change.
For example, scan the EAN-8 bar code to select that symbology.
3. Turn to the keypad (Appendix C: Keypad on page 193) and scan
the two-digit hex code that represents your desired character
(refer to the ASCII chart on the inside back cover of this man-
ual for this conversion).
4. Scan the digit '0' two times to disable transmission of a
second character. Return to this page.
As an example, assume that you want to change the Label ID for EAN-
8 from the default setting "FF" to the single character "8". In this exam-
ple, note that the chart shows that the ASCII character '8' is equivalent
to 38 hex, therefore the digits 3, then 8 should be scanned followed by
two zeros (00) to indicate a single character ID (e.g., scan 3,8,0,0)
5. Scan the END bar code on page 70.
NOTE
NOTE
Successful programming requires 4 digits for
the Label ID
If you make a mistake or lose your place while
setting this option, scan the END bar code to
exit Programming Mode. The scanner will
sound a two-beep error tone to indicate that
programming was incomplete, and the setting
will remain as it was before entering Program-
ming Mode.
