and min/max bar code data is also supported through Postamble specifications,
(See Preamble above for complete details).
Characters
This setup option allows you to output ASCII characters different from the
ones scanned. (Don't use this option to configure the Radio/Freedom Reader
for your non-US keyboard -- instead, use the Keyboard Country option
described below.)
For example: Suppose you want the Radio/Freedom Reader to output a hex
92 character every time you scan a 1 (hex 31); you want to remap hex 31 to
hex 92, (If you're using 8 data bits, output of 80-F8 codes is possible.)
1) Scan the Start Setup Bar Code
2) Scan the Characters Bar Code on the Setup Sheet.
3) Scan 3 1 and 9 2 to output hex 92 when reading a "1".
4) Scan up to 7 other pairs of character reassignments.
5) Scan Set when complete.
6) Scan End Setup to exit setup mode.
Hex values for each character code are shown on the
Full ASCII Menu, (the
back of
Wireless Setup Menu). The equivalent decimal values are also shown
for each character.
You can also eliminate characters by reassigning hex codes to FF. For
example, to strip all $ (dollar sign) characters from transmission, you would
follow the above instructions and scan 2 4 F F in step 3.
Keyboard country
This option configures the Radio/Freedom Reader for your choice of 15
keyboard country settings, such as USA (the default), UK, French, German, etc.
Scan the keyboard country bar code and then the two-digit code for your
keyboard country (listed on the Reader Setup Menu), such as 14 for UK.
Set ID Character
(This parameter only applies to the 2-Way RF Laser and the LI102-RF 2-Way
Linear Imager CCD.)
There are actually two IDs that can be set on each scanner. 1-8 to identify
which multiple laser is communicating with a base station, and a-z to associate
groups of scanners with bases operating on the same frequency.
Multiple scanners on one base station require each scanner to be set to a
unique ID of 1,2,3.....8. Scan Set ID Character and then scan 1-8 for each
scanner, giving each a different ID of 1-8.
It is possible to have more than 4 base stations, one for each available
frequency (3 in Europe) operating in the same room; common ID characters
