Note: The wildcard for all terminal types is 099.

Step 4. Code I.D.

On page 4-5, find the symbology to which you want to apply the data format. Locate the Hex value for that symbology and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart.

Step 5. Length

Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data will be acceptable for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length from the Program- ming Chart. (Note: 50 characters is entered as 0050. 9999 is a univer- sal number, indicating all lengths.)

Step 6. Editor Commands

Refer to the Format Editor Commands Chart (page 5-2). Scan the sym- bols that represent the command you want to enter. 94 alphanumeric characters may be entered for each symbology data format.

Step 7. Scan Save to save your entries.

Other Programming Selections

•Clear One Data Format

This deletes one data format for one symbology. If you are clearing the primary format, scan 0. If you are clearing an alternate format, scan 1, 2, or 3, depending on the alternate format you are clearing. Scan the Terminal Type (refer to the Supported Terminals Chart on page 2-3), Code I.D. and the length of the format you want to delete. That length data format for that symbology is deleted and all other formats are unaffected.

•Save

This exits, saving any Data Format changes.

•Discard

This exits without saving any Data Format changes.
