Transmit Alternate Extended ASCII Characters
You may need to emulate special keyboard functions, such as up or down arrows, Alt/Make or Alt/Break commands, that are not
supported in the Extended ASCII Character table. Refer to Alternate Extended ASCII Characters (page 5-3) for a range of key-
board function keys and corresponding decimal and hex characters. If you scan the Transmit Alternate Extended ASCII code,
any hex entries in a prefix or suffix will result in the corresponding Keyboard Function output.
Example: Transmit Alternate Extended ASCII is enabled, and you scan Add Suffix, then scan 9 9 8 9. All symbologies (99)
would have a suffix of a Page Down (hex 89) added to them.
When Transmit Normal Extended ASCII is selected, the normal extended ASCII character is transmitted ASCII Conversion
Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-2.
Example: Transmit Normal Extended ASCII is enabled, and you scan Add Suffix, then scan 9 9 8 9. All symbologies (99)
would have a suffix of a
‰
character added to them.
Default = Transmit Alternate Extended ASCII.
