Alternate Data Formats

Alternate formats allow you “single shot” capability to scan one bar code using a different data format than your primary format. When data formats are programmed (see page 6-1), you must input whether you are programming the primary format, or an alternate format numbered 1, 2, or 3.

An alternate format is initiated by scanning one of the 3 alternate format bar codes below. The image scanner will scan the next bar code, formatting the data with the selected alternate format, then revert immediately to the primary format.
