Output Format
MS-860 Industrial Raster Reader User’s Manual

Output Format Overview
Output Format consists of a set of criteria expressed in Extraction and Insertion
serial or
ESP menu commands that can be chained together to control the presentation
of data that is transmitted from decoded symbols. If a symbol does not meet the
defined criteria, it is treated as a noread.
Note that
Extraction and Insertion functions are independent of Ordered Output
criteria. The output format control can also work with all standard read modes such as
Matchcode, Multisymbol etc.
Commands can be chained together in an array of as many as 100 steps and applied to
any symbol.

mands to function.
