Prefix/Suffix Overview
Product Reference Guide 4-3
To Add a Prefix or Suffix:
Step 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (page 4-5).
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included
in the Symbology Chart on page A-1) for the symbology to which you
want to apply the prefix or suffix. For example, for Code 128, Code ID
is “j” and Hex ID is “6A”.
Step 3. Scan the 2 hex digits from the Programming Chart on page B-5 of this
manual or scan 9,9 for all symbologies.
Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code
Page 1252) on pageA-4, for the prefix or suffix you wish to enter.
Step 5. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart on page B-5
of this manual.
Step 6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for every prefix or suffix character.
Step 7. To add the Code I.D., scan 5,C,8,0.
To add AIM I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 1.
To add a backslash (\), scan 5,C,5,C.
Step 8. ScanSave to exit and save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.

Repeat Steps 1-6 to add a prefix or suffix for another symbology.

NOTE
To add a backslash (\) as in Step 7, you must
scan 5C twice – once to create the leading back-
slash and then to create the backslash itself.
