Datalogic Scanning 6000 PLUS How to Set Single Character Label I.D, This example 8 equals 38hex

How to Set Single Character Label I.D.

If you only want a single character identifier, follow this modified proce- dure for setting label identifier.

1. Look at the ASCII chart shown on page 38 and identify the ASCII character and the corresponding Hex Code for the ASCII character you will use as the symbology specific identifier.

2. Scan the SET label.

3. Scan the label identifier label for the symbology identifier that you are going to change.

As an example, assume that you want to change the label identifier for EAN-8 from the default setting FF to the ASCII value 8. Scan the Set Symbology Specific Label Identifier barcode for EAN-8.

5. Identify the hex value that correspond to the ASCII character.

In this example '8' equals 38hex.

Simply follow the hex value for '8' (38hex) with the One Character Only label. This tells the scanner that '8' is a single digit label

identifier.

6. Scan the barcodes values.

For the example in step five, scan 3, 8, One Character Only on the following two pages.

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.

7. Scan the END label.

You have changed the default label identifier for EAN-8 from 'FF' to '8'.
