Sequential
Instructs the scanner to compare labels or portions of labels for sequential numbers in
ascending or descending order.
There are four ways to load a master (see
“Master Label Entry” on page 2-24 ). In
every case sequencing occurs after each match. See “Match Code Type” on page
3-11 for special noread and mismatch sequences.
Wild Card
Allows you to enter user defined wild card characters in the master label.
For example, with wild card defined as the default asterisk, entering URGENT** as your
master label will result in matches for URGENT, URGENT1, and URGENT12 but not for
URGENT123.
As in the above example, when wild cards are appended to the end of the master
label, labels of variable lengths can result in matches. However, wild cards in the
beginning or center of a label (e.g., UR**NT) do not allow for variable label lengths.
Matchcode Master
Default: ( blank )
Options: Displays current master and accepts user entry up to 64 characters.
Allows you to edit an existing master or type in a new master label from your keyboard.
Sequential Matching
Default: Increment
Options: Increment, Decrement
Defines the order (ascending or descending) in which labels will be compared when
Match Code Type is set to Sequential.
Match Start Position
Default: 0
Options: 0 to 64
Match Start Position must be set to 1 or greater to enable this feature.
Defines the first character in the label (from left to right) that will be compared with
those of the master label when Match Code Type is set to Enabled or Sequential. For
example, if you set Match Start Position to 3, the first 2 characters read in the label
will be ignored and only the 3rd and subsequent characters to the right will be com-
pared, up to the number of characters specified by Match Length.
