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 (‘$’) as a prefix.
2. Go to
page 54
and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code, then
scan the SET GLOBAL PREFIX bar code.
3. Reference the
ASCII Chart
on the inside back cover of this manual to find the hex value
assigned to the desired character. The corresponding hex number for the ‘$’ character is
24. To enter this selection code, scan the ‘2’ and ‘4’ bar codes from
Appendix D, Keypad
.
NOTE
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code
to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the
beginning.
4. If less than the expected string of 20 characters are selected, scan the ENTER/EXIT bar
code to terminate the string.
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code once again to exit Programming Mode.
6. The resulting message string would appear as follows:

Scanned bar code data: 12345

Resulting message string output: $12345
