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

To set this feature:

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 bar code to enter Programming

Mode.

4. Scan the bar code: SELECT ACK CHARACTER SETTING.

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

Appendix E,

Keypad

, that represent the desired character/value in step

above. The second character

will cause a two-beep indication.

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

Mode.

This completes the procedure. See

for some examples of how to set this feature.
