Preamble/Postamble Configuration

Chapter 5

The ‘Preamble/Postamble’ configuration is used to add a prefix or suffix set of characters to the bar code value. Up to 8 characters may be added for each option separately. Preamble and postamble characters can function concurrently, but need to be configured separately.

To add preamble or postamble characters, follow the steps below:

1)Scan the ‘Clear Pre/Postamble’ bar code on this page.

2)Scan the ‘Preamble’ or ‘Postamble’ bar code.

3)Use Appendix B on pages 31-34 to locate the characters you want to add as preamble or postamble characters. Make sure that you scan the bar code associated with each letter before preceding to the next character. For example, to add the letter “A,” scan the bar code corresponding to the letter “A” on page 33. The letter “A” will always appear in your data as prefix or suffix to the bar code value.

4)Scan the corresponding 'Pre/Postamble' bar code on this page to exit this setting.
