Setting an Autoterminator
An autoterminator is an ASCII character that the decoder places at the
end of each data transmission. You can use autoterminators to sepa-
rate input with tabs, carriage returns, punctuation, or other ASCII
characters.
To set an autoterminator (I.D. #B1), scan the bar codes for the ASCII
value of a single ASCII character with no string terminator (
// ). For
example, to set an autoterminator of CR (carriage return), you would
enter
B10D . To set no autoterminator, you would enter B100 .
