Chapter 12 123Scan
Introduction
123Scan is a Windows
®
-based utility that programs the digital scanner with all parameters including Advanced
Data Formatting (ADF) rules. An ADF rule modifies bar code data before it transmits to the host to ensure
compatibility between bar coded data and the host application. You can program digital scanners via PC download
or by scanning a sheet of bar codes generated by the 123Scan utility. Digital scanner programming is saved in a
file for electronic distribution. The 123Scan program includes a help file.
