Micro PDF 417 Data Group Characters

Once you’ve pre-set your desired Data Group Characters1 using the Data Group Characters feature found in Chapter 5, Data Editing, you can choose to output up to two of those pre-sets whenever a Micro PDF 417 bar code is scanned.

The options in this section set Data Group Characters for the Micro PDF 417 symbology ONLY. If you wish to enable this feature for additional symbologies, turn to

NOTE the options in the section specific to the other symbol- ogy(s).

To set this feature:

1.Determine which Data Group pre-set(s) to output. You can select up to two from the following:

Data Group 1 * Data Group 2 * Data Group 3 * Data Group 4

For example, your choice might be Data Group 2 only; Data Groups 1 and 3; Data Groups 3 and 4; or no Data Groups.

2.Scan the START bar code to place the imager in Programming Mode.

3.Scan the SET MICRO PDF 417DATA GROUP CHARACTERS bar code.

4.Turn to Appendix B, Alpha-Numeric Pad and scan the digits repre- senting the Data Group designation(s) chosen in the first step above. A digit of value zero (0) selects “no group.” For example, scanning 3 and 0 would output only the character(s) set for Data Group 3 whenever a Micro PDF 417 bar code was scanned. Scan- ning digits 1 and 2 would output both Data Groups 2 and 3. To select no Data Groups at all, scan 0, then 0 again.

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

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

1.In that chapter, you can select which character(s) and position(s) to place Data Characters within scanned data output.
