Stringing Together Multiple Formats (Creating “Or” Statements)
You may want to program the scanner to accept many OCR formats. To do this,
you would string together each format with a “t.” This tells the scanner to read
optical characters that match any one of the formats in the template.
Example D:
You need to read any combination of 8 digits,
or
a combination
of 4 digits, 2 uppercase letters, and 2 digits. The template would be:
ddddddddtddddlldd
To create this template, you would scan the
Enter OCR Template
symbol
(page 4-9), scan the
d
from the OCR Programming Chart after the Sample
Codes in the back of this manual 8 times, then scan the
t
to create the “or”
statement. Then you would scan the characters for the 2nd template. Scan
the
d
4 times, scan
l
2 times, then scan
d
2 more times. Scan
Save OCR
Template
(page 4-9). This would let you read either type of format, for
example:

99028650

or

9902XZ50

You can string together as many templates as you need.
Creating a User-Defined Variable
You can create up to two of your own user variables for an OCR template. These
variables will represent any OCR readable characters. The user-defined
variables are stored under the letters “g” and “h.” Creating a user variable follows
the same steps as creating a template, but instead of scanning the
Enter OCR
Template
symbol, you scan the
Enter User-Defined Variable
symbol (page 4-
9). The letters g and h can then be used in an OCR template to define the
variable you specified.
