Global Prefix/Suffix

Up to 20 ASCII characters may be added as a prefix (in a position before the bar code data) and/ or as a suffix (in a position following the bar code data) as indicated in Figure 4-2.

Example: Setting a Prefix

In this example, we’ll set a prefix for all symbologies.

1.Determine which ASCII character(s) are to be added to scanned bar code data. In this example, we’ll add a dollar sign (‘$’) as a prefix.

2.Scan the START bar code.

3.Scan the SET PREFIX bar code.

4.Reference the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual, to find the hex value assigned to the desired character. The corresponding hex number for the ‘$’ character is 24. To enter this selection code, scan the ‘2’ and ‘4’ bar codes from Appendix C, Alpha-

Numeric Pad.

5. Scan the END bar code to exit Programming Mode.

If less than the expected string of 20 characters are selected, scan the END bar code twice to accept the selections and exit Programming Mode.

NOTE

6.The resulting message string would appear as follows:

Scanned bar code data:12345

Resulting message string output: $12345
