To create this sequence:

1.Define fields 1, 2, 3, and 4.

2.Define field 5 as a bar code. Allow enough characters in the bar code field to hold all the copied characters.

3.Apply Option 4 to field 5 once for every source field.

S u b - F i e l d s

You can copy a segment of data from one field into a new location, called a sub-field. For example, extract part of the data in a bar code and display it in text form in a sub-field. Then, use the copy data option.

O p t i o n 5 ( D e f i n e D a t a E n t r y S o u r c e s )

Defines how data is entered into a field. If the field holds all fixed characters or copied data only, you can eliminate the operator prompt. Use Option 5 only once per field. You must use the 917 keypad with the 9850 printer for offline data entry.

 

Option 5 is required for offline data entry on

 

the 9403 and 9850 printers.
