Hand Held Products 4600g, 4800i, 4600r manual 551ABC983, Adding Spaces

Character Match Sequences

On the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-4,find the Hex value that represents the character(s) you want to match. Use the Programming Chart (inside the back cover) to scan the numbers that represent these characters.

Example: You need to read three digits, three specific characters (ABC), three digits. The template would be:

ddd414243ddd } hex codes for

letters A, B, and C

To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font. Scan the Enter OCR Template symbol (page 9-13). Scan the d from the OCR Programming Chart in the back of this manual three times. Then scan 414243 from the inside back cover (the hex characters for “A,” “B,” and “C”), and scan the d three more times. Scan Save OCR Template, page 9-14. This would let you read any string of three digits, “ABC,” then any string of three digits, for example:

551ABC983
