Data Editing
Product Reference Guide 285
Data Editing
When a bar code is scanned, additional information can be sent to the host
computer along with the bar code data. This combination of bar code data
and supplementary user-defined data is called a “message string.” The Data
Editing features can be used to build specific user-defined data into a mes-
sage string.
There are several types of selectable data characters that can be sent before
and after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all sym-
bologies, or only with specific symbologies. Figure 7 shows the available
elements you can add to a message string:

Label ID Transmission:
Enable this option to
transmit the Label ID you
configure for the scanned
symbology.
AIM ID: This function is used to identify and display the
common label identifier for its symbology. When enabled,
this ID code will be transmitted before the scanned bar
code data.

Additional advanced editing is available. See the Advanced formatting
features in the Datalogic Aladdin configuration software, or contact
Technical Support (as described on
page 2
) for more information.
Please Keep In Mind...
• Modifying a message string is not a mandatory requirement. Data edit-
ing is a sophisticated feature allowing highly customizable output for
advanced users. Factory default settings for data editing is typically set
to NONE.
• A prefix or suffix may be applied only to a specified symbology (refer-
ence 1D Symbologies, starting on page 81 or 2D Symbologies, starting
on page 173 ) or across all symbologies (set via the Global features in
this chapter).
• You can add any character from the ASCII Chart (from 00-FF) on the
inside back cover of this manual as a prefix, suffix or Label ID.
• Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to
appear on the output.
