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 barcode data. In this example, we’ll add a dollar sign (‘$’) as a prefix.
2.Scan the START barcode.
3.Scan the SET PREFIX barcode.
4.Reference the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual, to find the hex value assigned to the desired character. The corresponding hex number for the ‘$’ character is 24. To enter this selection code, scan the ‘2’ and ‘4’ barcodes from Appendix C, Alpha-
Numeric Pad.
5. Scan the END barcode to exit Programming Mode.
If less than the expected string of 20 characters are selected, scan the END barcode twice to accept the selections and exit Programming Mode.
NOTE
6.The resulting message string would appear as follows:
Scanned barcode data:12345
Resulting message string output: $12345
