Global Prefix/Suffix
Global Prefix/Suffix — continued
Example: Setting a Prefix
In this example, we’ll set a prefix for all symbologies.
1.Determine which ASCII character(s) are to be added to scanned bar code data. In this example, we’ll add a dollar sign (‘$’) as a pre- fix.
2.Scan the START bar code.
3.Scan the SET PREFIX bar code.
4.Reference the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual, to find the hex value assigned to the desired character. The corre- sponding hex number for the ‘$’ character is 24. To enter this selection code, scan the ‘2’ and ‘4’ bar codes from Appendix C,
5. Scan the END bar code to exit Programming Mode.
If less than the expected string of 20 characters are selected, scan the END bar code twice to accept the selections and exit Programming Mode.
NOTE
6. The resulting message string would appear as follows:
Scanned bar code data: | 12345 |
Resulting message string output: $12345
