Non-Symbology Specific Items
Setting Non-Symbology Specific Prefix(es)
These characters will be added to the standard label format when your host system has specific and unique requirements for information added to the barcode label data before it is sent to the host. Identify your specific system requirements before adding or modifying these settings, then...
1. Look at the ASCII chart shown on page 38 and identify the ASCII character(s) and the corresponding Hex Code(s) for the ASCII characters you will use as prefixes.
For example, if you are going to send two prefix characters as 'STX' (start transmit) and 'SP' (Space). The ASCII chart shows that 'STX' equals 02hex and 'SP' equals 20hex.
2. Scan the SET label.
3. Scan the SET PREFIX label on this page.
4. Scan the digits that correspond to the Hex Values.
For the example in step four, scan 0, 2, 2, 0.
NOTE
If you make a mistake, or lose your place while setting this option, scan the END label to exit Programming Mode. The scanner will sound an error tone (six rapid beeps) to indicate that programming was incomplete, and the setting will remain as it was before entering Programming Mode.
5. Scan END.
You have added a two character prefix to all label data, regard- less of label symbology, that will be added to the label data before it is sent to the host.
