Custom Identifiers
Code IDs can be defined by the user. This allows processing parameters to be configured for bar codes that do not use the
standard AIM or Symbol IDs or for bar codes that have data embedded at the beginning of the data that acts like a Code ID.
These are called “custom” Code IDs and are included in the Symbology drop down box in the Symbology dialog, unless Enable
Code ID is set to None. When the custom Code ID is found in a bar code, the configuration specified for the custom Code ID is
applied to the bar code data. The dialog below allows the custom Code IDs to be configured.
It is intended that custom code IDs are used to supplement the list of standard code IDs (if Enable Code ID is set to AIM or
Symbol), or to replace the list of standard code IDs (if Enable Code ID is set to Custom).
When Enable Code ID is set to None, custom code IDs are ignored.
Note: Custom symbologies will appear at the end of the list in the Symbology dialog, and are processed at the beginning of
the list in the scanner driver itself. This allows custom IDs based on actual code IDs to be processed before the code
ID itself.
Note: When Strip: Code ID is enabled, the entire custom Code ID string is stripped (i.e., treated as a Code ID).
After adding, changing and removing items from the Custom IDs list, tap the ok button to save changes and return to the
Barcode panel.
