UPC-A Label ID
This feature specifies a UPC-A label ID to be added to bar code data.
To set this feature:
1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.
2. Scan the bar code, SET UPC-A LABEL ID below. You’ll need to
cover any unused bar codes on this and the facing page to ensure
the scanner reads only the bar code you intend to scan.
3. Scan the appropriate digits from the keypad in Appendix C that
represent the desired Label ID characters; entered as two hex
pairs. A table containing the ASCII Character Set and their corre-
sponding Hex Values is available in the inside back cover of this
manual. ASCII parameters must be input by scanning a pair of
hexadecimal digits for each character. Thus, to set a two-character
value of AB, bar codes containing the digits ‘4’, ‘1’, ‘4’, and ‘2’
must be scanned. The selectable range for this option is any hex
value from 00 to FF.
4. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
bar code.

NOTE
The programming feature, RS-232 Label ID Control, designates whether
the Label ID is transmitted as a prefix or suffix or if Label ID is disabled.
