52 PowerScan
®
Scanner
Single
Character
Prefix or Suffix
The scanner will not transmit a prefix, or suffix character if its hex
value is set to zero. To set a prefix or suffix that has only one character,
follow these steps:
1. Scan the SET bar code on page 53.
2. Scan SET PREFIX or SET SUFFIX bar code.
3. Turn to the keypad (Appendix C: Keypad on page 147) and scan
the two-digit hex code that represents your desired character
(refer to the ASCII chart on the inside back cover of this man-
ual for this conversion).
4. Scan the digit ‘0’ two times to disable transmission of a second
character.
For example, if ‘Space’ (SP) is desired, the chart shows that the corre-
sponding hex code for ‘SP’ is 20, thus you would scan the digit 2, then
the digit 0 for the first character, followed by 00 digits from the keypad
for the second character, (e.g., scan 2,0,0,0). Return to this page and go
to step five.
5. Scan the END bar code on page 53.
NOTE
Successful programming of a prefix or suffix
requires 4 digits.
NOTE
If you make a mistake or lose your place while
setting this option, scan the END bar code to
exit Programming Mode. The scanner will
sound a two-beep error tone to indicate that
programming was incomplete, and the setting
will remain as it was before entering Program-
ming Mode.
