Programming the Scanner

Data Editor
Data Editor is an Artificial Intelligence-based expert system
used to format the scanned data before it is transmitted to the
host system. The Data Editor condensed version has been
embedded in the scanner. You gain access to desired Data
Editor’s functions via scanning the menu’s bar code. The
full-feature Data Editor is only available through HHP SET,
which gives you the freedom of modifying the scanned data
anyway you like, and allows you to integrate the scanner into
any existing application.
Data Format Editor
The ultra powerful data editing functions provided by the Data
Editor are controlled by user-defined rules. Through
independent rules, users can easily get the following
functionality:
General Transmission Control
The available parameters include “Preamble,” “Postamble,”
“Suffix,” “Symbol ID and Data Length Transmission,” and
“Transmission Time Control.”
Advanced Data Verification
The user can base the specific data format on the desired Bar
Code Symbologies to select “Valid ASCII Domain,” “Valid
Data Length Domain,” and “Matched Data Value” to establish
any desired filtering algorithm. This feature not only provides
an on-scanner data filter without application software
modification, but also reduces the error reading rate and
improves data capture reliability.
Field Oriented Data Formatter
The Field Oriented Data Formatter allows the user to flexibly
divide scanned data by “Delimiter” or “Length.” When used
with “Added Field” and “Transmission Sequence
Arrangement” features, you can implement “Insert,”
“Delete,” “Replace,” “Re-organize,” and other data
editing capabilities beyond your imagination.
