Code I.D. Selection

The Code I.D. for this symbology consists of one or two user-selectable
ASCII characters. It can be appended previous to or following the trans-
mitted Micro PDF 417 bar code data depending on how this feature is
enabled.

Example: Setting the Micro PDF 417 Code I.D.

To configure this feature:

1. Determine which character(s) you would like to use to represent

the Micro PDF 417 symbology. Reference

Appendix A, ASCII Con-

version Chart

to find the corresponding hex values for your chosen

character(s). In this example we’ll set a Code I.D. of “U” to repre-
sent Micro PDF 417. The value from the table corresponding to
‘’U’ is 55. This value will be used in a step to follow.

2. Scan the START bar code

3. Scan the SET MICRO PDF 417 I.D. bar code.

4. Turn to

Appendix B, Alpha-Numeric Pad

and scan the bar codes ‘5’

and ‘5’ (the value determined in an earlier step to represent ‘U’).

5. Scan the SET bar code to accept the digits scanned.

6. Turn to the

Data Editing

chapter and scan the CODE ID POSI-

TION: BEFORE BAR CODE DATA label.

7. Scan the END bar code to exit Programming Mode.

8. The resulting message string for scanned Micro PDF 417 labels

would appear as follows:

Scanned bar code data:

0123456789123

Resulting message string output: U0123456789123

NOTE

Features configured using the

Data Editing

chapter are

universal and will affect all symbologies.
