Use Numeric Keypad
The ASCII Code for numeric input from the keypad part of the
keyboard is different from that of the upper row of the keyboard
proper. Some accounting programs specifically require keypad
input, and for that reason, the reader decoder can output read data
as either keypad or keyboard (upper row) output.
Default is “No”
Function Code
Function Code determines how function code characters from the
magnetic stripe reader are output.
Default is “Yes”.
If Yes is selected, then
rea
d function codes will output as if
their corresponding function keys were pressed. For instance -
scanning an F1 label will display a “Help” pop-up box, F3 will
display a “Find” pop-up box, etc.
If No is selected, the
rea
d function codes will output special
character strings defined by Unitech for non-print character
output.
Default is “Auto Trace”.
Auto Trace automatically determines the Caps Lock key status
of your keyboard
and informs the decoder accordingly.
Lower Case manually coordinates the physical state of the Caps
Lock key with the Caps Lock state of the decoder. For example,
if the Caps Lock LED
of your keyboard
is not lit, then “Lower
Case" should be
selected.
Upper Case is the same as Lower Case (above) except that it
applies to the upper case state. If the Caps Lock LED
on your
keyboard is lit, then
“Upper Case” should be selected.
Caps-Lock
The Caps-Lock function determines how the Caps Lock key controls
the case of alphabetical characters. The three options below are
available:
