Code 39 Buffering (Scan & Store) (continued)

This feature affects Code 39 only. If selecting Buffer Code 39, we recommend configuring the scanner to decode
Code 39 symbology only.

While there is data in the transmission buffer, selecting Do Not Buffer Code 39 is not allowed. The buffer holds
200 bytes of information.

To disable Code 39 buffering when there is data in the transmission buffer, first force the buffer transmission (see

Transmit Buffer on page 8-26

) or clear the buffer.

Buffer Data

To buffer data, Code 39 buffering must be enabled and a Code 39 symbol must be read with a space immediately
following the start pattern.

Unless the data overflows the transmission buffer, the scanner issues a low/high beep to indicate successful
decode and buffering. (For overflow conditions, see

Overfilling Transmission Buffer on page 8-26

.)

The scanner adds the decoded data excluding the leading space to the transmission buffer.

No transmission occurs.

Clear Transmission Buffer

To clear the transmission buffer, scan the Clear Buffer bar code below, which contains only a start character, a
dash (minus), and a stop character.

The scanner issues a short high/low/high beep.

The scanner erases the transmission buffer.

No transmission occurs.
