Chapter 5 Data Format Setup
Introduction
After successful barcode reading, the customer will receive a string of data which can be numbers, English characters
symbols and so on, this string of data is the data information included in the barcode.
The barcode data information may not be enough in the application, or the data included in the barcode can not meet your
requirement.If you want to know from which type of barcode comes out this string of data, or in which date the barcode
data is scanned, or you hope that the text in which the barcode is recorded can perform automatical change lines after one
barcode scanning is finished, but these information may not be included in the barcode data.
Adding these information into the barcode will increase the barcode length and make it unflexible, thus, this method does
not deserve recommendation. Then we thought about to add something before or after the barcode data, which can be
added or shielded according to the requirement. The things we add are the prefix and suffix of barcode data. This method
can help to meet the requirement and it is not necessary to change the barcode.
Note: the barcode processing step: to add prefix and suffix first (except for the end mark suffix), then the end mark suffix.
Prefix Sequence Setup

Custom Prefix
Add Custom Prefix or Not
The custom prefix will add the customer-defined character string before the decoding information, the length of character
string should not more than 10.
For example, it is allowed to add custom prefix and set the prefix to character string “AB”, by reading the barcode with data
“123”, the scanner adds ”AB” before “123, and the host will receive “AB123”.
