ISBN ID Setting

Sets the Code ID used for labels that are translated to ISBN/ISSN num- bers. The Code I.D. for this symbology consists of one or two user- selectable ASCII characters. It can be appended previous to or following the transmitted bar code data depending on how this feature is enabled.

Example: Setting the ISBN ID

To configure this feature:

1.Determine which character(s) you would like to use to represent ISBN/ISSN translated labels. Reference Appendix A, ASCII Conver- sion Chart, to find the corresponding hex values for your chosen character(s). In this example we’ll set a Code I.D. of “I” to repre- sent ISBN/ISSN. The value from the table corresponding to ‘I’ is 49. This value will be used in a step to follow.

2.Scan the START bar code

3.Scan the SET ISBN CODE I.D. bar code.

4.Turn to Appendix B, Alpha-Numeric Pad and scan the bar codes ‘4’ and ‘9’ (the value 49 determined in an earlier step to represent a Code I.D. of ‘I’).

5.Scan the SET bar code to accept the digits scanned.

6.Turn to the Data Editing chapter and scan the CODE ID POSI- TION: BEFORE BAR CODE DATA label.

Features configured using the Data Editing chapter are universal and will affect all symbologies.

NOTE

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

8.The resulting message string for converted ISBN/ISSN labels would appear as follows:

Scanned bar code data:

97801234565

Resulting message string output: I97801234565
