Enable/Disable Download Data with Machine ID
Each BCP unit comes with a unique Machine ID (an eight-digit
number) from factory. The Machine ID is stored inside the
firmware and cannot be modified without removing the IC.
This menu item allows you to include/exclude the Machine ID
to be displayed in the output window of the download
operation for identification purpose. This option is useful when
multiple BCP units are being used to collectively capture
barcode data.
Note that Machine ID tagging with real-time data (tethered
scanning) is associated with each single record; whereas
Machine ID tagging with batch data (downloaded from BCP
memory) pertains to the entire data file. Refer to the Hyper
Terminal example in Section 4.2.2 and the Download Data
example in Section 4.2.4 for comparison.
