Programming the Scanner

Data Editor

Data Editor is an Artificial Intelligence-based expert system used to format the scanned data before it is transmitted to the host system. The Data Editor condensed version has been embedded in the scanner. You gain access to desired Data Editor’s functions via scanning the menu’s bar code. The full-feature Data Editor is only available through HHP SET, which gives you the freedom of modifying the scanned data anyway you like, and allows you to integrate the scanner into any existing application.

Data Format Editor

The ultra powerful data editing functions provided by the Data Editor are controlled by user-defined rules. Through independent rules, users can easily get the following functionality:

General Transmission Control

The available parameters include “Preamble,” “Postamble,” “Suffix,” “Symbol ID and Data Length Transmission,” and “Transmission Time Control.”

Advanced Data Verification

The user can base the specific data format on the desired Bar Code Symbologies to select “Valid ASCII Domain,” “Valid Data Length Domain,” and “Matched Data Value” to establish any desired filtering algorithm. This feature not only provides an on-scanner data filter without application software modification, but also reduces the error reading rate and improves data capture reliability.

Field Oriented Data Formatter

The Field Oriented Data Formatter allows the user to flexibly divide scanned data by “Delimiter” or “Length.” When used with “Added Field” and “Transmission Sequence Arrangement” features, you can implement “Insert,” “Delete,” “Replace,” “Re-organize,” and other data editing capabilities beyond your imagination.
