Label ID: Set Individually Per Symbology
To configure a Label ID individually for a single symbology:
1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code.
2. Select Label ID position as either BEFORE (Enable as Prefix) or AFTER
(Enable as suffix) by scanning the appropriate bar code in the section
"Label ID Control" on page 39. Reference Figure 6 for Label ID positioning
options if multiple identification features are enabled.
3. Scan a bar code to select the symbology for which you wish to configure a
custom Label ID from the section Label ID Symbology Selection, starting on
page 40 .
4. Determine the desired character(s) (you may choose up to three) which will
represent the Label ID for the selected symbology.
5. Turn to the ASCII Chart on page 295 on the inside back cover of this manual
and find the equivalent hex digits associated with your choice of Label ID.
For example, if you wish to select an equal sign (=) as a Label ID, the chart
indicates its associated hex characters as 3D. Turn to Keypad, starting on
page 281 and scan the bar codes representing the hex characters deter-
mined. For the example given, the characters ‘3’ and ‘D’ would be
scanned. More examples of Label ID settings are provided in Table 14 .
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code to exit Label ID entry.
7. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code once again to exit Programming Mode.
This completes the steps to configure a Label ID for a given symbology.
