5.11.21.2 Translations Tab - Psion EP10 User Manual

Chapter 5: Settings
Scanner Settings
If you choose Default Local ASCII, the code page of the local OS is used. For example, if the local OS uses
double-byte Chinese characters, choosing this option will filter data through the local ASCII of that OS and
display it accurately, in this example, using double-byte characters.
If you choose ISO-8859-1 Latin 1, data will be displayed according to the character mapping of this Latin 1
code page, ignoring the local OS code page.
Data Transmission
If Paste data is enabled (highlighted), the barcode output is copied to the system clipboard and then auto-
matically pasted to an application.
If Wedge data is enabled, each character that composes the barcode data is turned into a keyboard se-
quence that is transmitted to the cursor location of the current application – that is, to the application, it
looks like the barcode data was typed on the keyboard.
Note: The default Paste data option is a faster method of data transmission.

5.11.21.2 Translations Tab

The Translations tab allows you to define up to 10 cases, each consisting of up to 10 rules in sequential
order. Only one case will be applied to a bar code and a case will only be applied if all rules specified in the
case are successful – if a rule within a case fails, the entire case fails.
