String Format
Prefix/Suffix
When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the
host computer along with the bar code data. This group of bar code
data and additional, user-defined data is called a “message string.”
The selections in this section are used to build the user-defined
data into the message string. Prefix and Suffix characters are data
characters that can be sent before and after scanned data. You can
specify if they should be sent with all symbologies, or only with
specific symbologies. The following illustration shows the
breakdown of a message string:
Prefix / Suffix characters setting: Characters defined as prefix or
suffix characters will be transmitted immediately with the scanned
data for all symbologies. Up to 11 ASCII characters can be defined
for both Prefix and Suffix.
Tips
• A prefix or suffix may be added or cleared from one symbology
or all symbologies.
• You can add any prefix or suffix f, plus Code I.D. and
AIM
I.D.
• You can string together several entries for several symbologies at
one time.
• Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them
to appear on the output.
• When Setting up for specific symbologies, instead of All
Symbologies, the symbology ID value counts as an added prefix or
suffix character.
