Example: Setting a Prefix
In this example, we’ll set a prefix for all symbologies.
1. Determine which ASCII character(s) are to be added to scanned
bar code data. In this example, we’ll add a dollar sign (‘$’) as a pre-
fix.
2. Scan the START bar code.
3. Scan the SET PREFIX CHARACTER(S) bar code.
4. Reference Appendix A, ASCII Conversion Chart , to find the hex value
assigned to the desired character. The corresponding hex number
for the ‘$’ character is 24. To enter this selection code, scan the ‘2’
and ‘4’ bar codes from
Appendix B, Alpha-Numeric Pad .
5. Scan the SET bar code to accept the digits scanned.
6. Scan the END bar code to exit Programming Mode.
7. The resulting message string would appear as follows:
Scanned bar code data: 12345
Resulting message string output: $12345
