ASCII characters or any hex value from 0 to 0xFF can be selected.

NOTE

To set the value:

1. Determine the desired character or value. A setting of 0xFF indicates the Disable Charac-

ter is not used (not available).

2. Use the

ASCII Chart

on the inside back cover of this manual to find the hex equivalent for

the desired character/value.

3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming

Mode.

4. Scan the barcode: SELECT DISABLE CHARACTER SETTING.

5. Scan the appropriate two alpha-numeric characters from the keypad in

Appendix E, Key-

pad

, that represent the desired character/value in step 1 above. The second character will

cause a two-beep indication.

6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming

Mode.

This completes the procedure. See Table
