Aim Formats - Datalogic Magellan 9800i Product Reference Manual

AIM Formats

AIM specifies a 3-character string that is attached as a prefix to the label data for
transmission. Because AIM specifies one identifier for UPCA, UPCE and EAN13 labels,
UPCA, UPCE and EAN13 will be received from the handheld and transmitted by the
scanner as EAN13. The ']' character must be the first character received in the label
transmission from the handheld.
The following sections describe the prefix strings and identify what specific label
characteristics can be supported.
