Serialization
LabelMark5.0 User’s Manual
Priority
The last field in the grid is Priority. Changing the priority determines how the particular
components increment relative to each other. The number of priority levels available depends
on how many components are included in your serialization. (E.g., if you are serializing 5
components, you can use up to five separate priorities, showing the relationship of each
component to each other. Following is a description of how priority works.
• Priority 0. A component assigned the priority of 0 increments independently from other
components.
• Priority 1 . A component assigned the priority of 1 increments first, progressing through
the entire string before other components begin to increment.
• Priority 2 . A component assigned the priority of 2 does not start incrementing until the
priority 1 component reaches its end value.
• Priority # (Where # represents any other sequential number). A component assigned this
priority number does not start incrementing until the component with the previous priority
number reaches its end value.
Rearrange Components
The serialized data displays in the order in which you set up the components. For instance, if
the first component is a numeric string and the second component an alpha string, the
serialized data will display as 1A. To have the data display as A1, change the order of the
components. To change the order of components:
1.
In the grid, click the row of the component to move.
2.
Depending on where the component is in the grid, click Up or Down to move the
component to the intended position.
