Programming Guide 35
Setting Non-Symbology Specific Suffix(es)
These characters will be added to the standard label format when your
system has specific and unique requirements for information added to the
barcode label data before it is sent to the host. Suffix characters follow
the label data.
Identify your specific system requirements before adding or modifying
these settings, then...
1. Look at the ASCII chart shown on page 38 and identify the
ASCII character(s) and the corresponding Hex Code(s) for the
ASCII characters you will use as suffixes.
For example, if you are going to send two suffix characters as
'BEL' (sound host tone) and 'ETX' (end transmission). The
ASCII chart shows that 'BEL' equals 07
hex
and 'ETX' equals
03
hex
.
2. Scan the SET label.
3. Scan the SET SUFFIX label on this page.
4. Scan the digits that correspond to the Hex Values.
For the example in step five, scan 0, 7, 0, 3.
NOTE
If you make a mistake, or lose your place while setting this option,
scan the END label to exit Programming Mode. The scanner will
sound an error tone (six rapid beeps) to indicate that programming
was incomplete, and the setting will remain as it was before
entering Programming Mode.
5. Scan END.
You have added a two character suffix to all label data, regard-
less of label symbology, that will be added to the label data
before it is sent to the host.
