All OCR Off turns off all OCR capability in the scanner, so the scanner will be
able to scan linear, stacked, matrix, and composite bar codes, but not OCR fonts.
However, any OCR templates you have created will be retained in memory.
Creating OCR Templates
You can create a custom “template,” or character string that defines the length
and content of OCR strings that will be read with your scanner. There are several
choices when creating a custom template for your application. You can create a
template for a single format, you can string together several formats, and you can
create a template for a user-defined variable. These choices are described in
detail below.
Creating an OCR Template
A single template allows you to program the scanner to read any combination of
characters in the order you specify.
Template Characters
a represents any alphanumeric character (digit or letter)
c represents a check character position
d represents any digit
e represents any available OCR character
g represents user-defined variable
h represents user-defined variable
l represents any uppercase letter
t marks the start of a new template
All other characters represent themselves. Spaces can be used.
