Method 2 - Manipulating the Barcode Data
Method 2 allows modifying the barcode data by means of one of the following
procedures:
− String insertion;
− String deletion;
− String substitution;
− Field deletion.
Once the data has been modified, it is sent to the host computer as data of the output
message.
Unlike Method 1 this method does not allow associating different procedures
together. This means that each format definition corresponds to a single procedure.
Despite this, it possible to add a new string of characters to the beginning or ending
part of the formatted barcode.
The only limit is determined by the size of the internal reserved memory used to
define the format.
