register

A register is a temporary holding place for up to 128 characters of

 

data. When you scan a bar code with a portable, the code is stored in

 

a register until it is verified and copied into a file for safekeeping. The

 

contents of the register are overwritten each time you scan a code.

rows

The display screen of the PSC Falcon PT40 is divided horizontally into

 

rows, numbered 0 through 5. Refer to Default Language on page 29

 

for more information on the number of rows allowed, depending upon

 

the selected language.

Subroutine

A subroutine contains nodes that execute program steps, very much

 

like a frame. The difference is that a subroutine is not connected to

 

other objects. It contains functions that can be referenced from any of

 

the program’s frames with a Call node.

template

A template is a structure that you can define and impose on data. It

 

lets you alter the way in which collected data is stored. The most com-

 

mon use of a template is to take data from two or more registers and

 

tie them together in a single register.

Verify node

A Verify node checks data against specified requirements.
