Concatenating configuration bar codes

2. Obtain the data strings for the codes you want to concatenate
(
Ð
Parameter list / data strings).
Example
For the following codes, you will obtain the following strings:
reset factory defaults
\46\42\60
N° 201
AZERTY - French
\41\4A\03\09\60
Codabar active
\41\52\60
2 good read beeps
\45\4A\01\60
You can also obtain the data strings by putting the MicroBar NX into Display Data String
mode and reading the configuration codes of your choice (
Ð
Configuration modes—Display
data string mode). However, the strings displayed include a check digit after the \60 end-of-
code character which you must also remove when you concatenate the codes.
3. Use the individual data strings to create a single data string and
remove the \60 end-of-code characters for each code except the last
code in the string.
Example
For the codes listed in the previous example, you will obtain the following
concatenated string:
\46\42\41\4A\03\09\41\52\45\4A\01\60
4. If necessary, convert the hexadecimal values and backslash separators
into suitable values for your barcode printing sofware (ASCII values
for example).
The data strings contain hexadecimal values separated by backslashes.
Make sure that the values you use with your software correspond to these values.
Example: Instead of the hexadecimal value \41, you may need to use the equivalent ASCII
character "A" (do not use the decimal value 41 !).
