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 Code 4/5 bar code data depending on how this feature is enabled.

Example: Setting the Code 4/5 Code I.D.

To configure this feature:

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

the Code 4/5 symbology. Reference

Appendix A, ASCII Conversion

Chart

to find the corresponding hex values for your chosen charac-

ter(s). In this example we’ll set a Code I.D. of “N” to represent
Code 4/5. The value from the table corresponding to ‘’N’ is 4E, .
This value will be used in a step to follow.

2. Scan the START bar code

3. Scan the SET Code 4/5 I.D. bar code.

4. Turn to

Appendix B, Alpha-Numeric Pad

and scan the bar codes ‘4’

and ‘E’ (the value determined in an earlier step to represent ‘N’),

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 Code 4/5 labels would

appear as follows:

Scanned bar code data:0123456789123

Resulting message string output:N0123456789123

NOTE

Features configured using the

Data Editing

chapter are

universal and will affect all symbologies.
