Label ID

A Label ID is a customizable code of up to two ASCII characters (00- FF), used to identify a bar code (symbology) type. It can be appended previous to or following the transmitted bar code data depending upon how this option is enabled. This feature provides options for configuring custom Label IDs individually per symbology. If you wish to program the scanner to always include an industry standard label identifier for ALL symbology types, see the previous feature, AIM ID.

To configure a Label ID:

1.Scan the START bar code.

2.Select Label ID position as either BEFORE or AFTER by scan- ning the appropriate bar code.

3.Scan a bar code to select the symbology for which you wish to con- figure a custom Label ID.

4.Determine the desired character(s) (you may choose either one or two) which will represent the Label ID for the selected symbology. Next, turn to the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this man- ual and find the equivalent hex digits associated with your choice of Label ID. For example, if you wish to select an equal sign (=) as a Label ID, the chart indicates its associated hex characters as 3D.

5.Turn to Appendix C, Alpha-Numeric Pad and scan the bar codes rep- resenting the hex characters determined in the previous step. For the example given, the characters ‘0’, ‘0’, ‘3’ and ‘D’ would be scanned. The two zeros scanned (‘0’, ‘0’) represent a selection of “no character,” since this option allows for two Label ID charac- ters. (Pad with zeros to enter four hex characters.)

6.Scan the END bar code to exit programming mode.
