Alternative Date and Time formats
See the Protocol parameter for details on how to set the TriCoder to use
alternative Date and Time formats. The default formats use mmddyy and
hhmm . Formats include:
•
A - short format - no separators between characters
•
B - long format - date uses / separators, time uses: separator
•
C - US format - mmddyy, hhmm
•
D - European Format- ddmmyy, hhmm
Combinations are AC, AD, BC and BD. To use the European format, first
change the format in the
Protocol parameter, then reset the date and time,
entering the digits in the correct order. Follow the same procedure to set it
back to the US format.
Single Cycle Transmit
Single Cycle Transmit OFF 0
Single Cycle Transmit ON 1
•
Single Cycle Transmit allows the TriCoder to upload one field at a
time to the host, controlled by the pressing of any key (except F1) on
the TriCoder each time the operator wants to transmit a field.
•
Single Cycle Transmit is used to test complex upload prefix and suffix
sequences. This is typically used when a TriCoder is used in Keyboard
Wedge mode and you are uploading directly into an application.
Single Cycle Transmit allows you to test key sequences and delays
before you collect a lot of data and try an upload. Pressing F1
terminates the upload session.
EOF String
The EOF String setting allows you to choose up to 8 characters to be
transmitted at the end of a TriCoder file upload. It is typically used to
signal to the receiving host program that the TriCoder is done uploading its
data and has transferred its last piece of data. The characters chosen are
often characters not available on the TriCoder keypad; they are scanned
from the FULL ASCII MENU. To program an
EOF String:
•
Scan EOF String
•
Scan up to 8 characters from the FULL ASCII MENU
•
Scan the SET bar code
If you do not program an EOF String , the TriCoder sends a Ctrl Z (ASCII
26). Undisplayable characters are displayed on the TriCoder as ? . To view
the ASCII equivalent (so you know what characters are there) press the F2
key while in the EOF String parameter.
