Rules
4 QuickScan ® L
Using ADF Barcodes
When you program a rule, make sure the rule is logically correct.
Plan ahead before you start scanning.
To program each data formatting rule:
Start the Rule —
Scan the barcode
"Begin New Rule" on page 9
.
Criteria —
Scan the barcodes for all pertinent criteria. Criteria can include code type
(e.g., Code 128), code length, or data that contains a specific character string (e.g., the
digits “129”). These options are described in
Chapter 4, Criteria
.
Actions —
Scan all actions related to, or affecting, these criteria. The actions of a rule
specify how to format the data for transmission. These options are described in
"ADF
Barcode Menu Example" on page 5
.
Save the Rule —
Scan the barcode
"Save Rule" on page 9
. This places the rule in the
“top” position in the rule buffer.
• If you make errors during this process, some special-purpose barcodes may be use-
ful:
"Erase Criteria And Start Again" on page 10
,
"Erase Actions And Start
Again" on page 10
,
"Erase Previously Saved Rule" on page 10
, etc.
• Criteria, actions, and entire rules may be erased by scanning the appropriate bar-
code (see barcodes beginning on
page 13
).
• Use the Product Reference Guide PRG as a for basic direction regarding the pro-
gramming steps. For more information on scanning, see the Quick Reference
Guide (ARG). See
