Enable/Disable Code 39 Full ASCII
Scan the appropriate bar code below to enable or disable Code 39 Full ASCII.
When enabled, the ASCII character set assigns a code to letters, punctuation marks,
numerals, and most control keystrokes on the keyboard.
The first 32 codes are non-printable and are assigned to keyboard control characters such
as BACKSPACE and RETURN. The other 96 are called printable codes because all but
SPACE and DELETE produce visible characters.
Code 39 Full ASCII interprets the bar code special character ($ + % /) preceding a Code
39 character and assigns an ASCII character value to the pair. For example, when Code
39 Full ASCII is enabled and a +B is scanned, it is interpreted as b, %J as ?, and $H
emulates the keystroke BACKSPACE. Scanning ABC$M will output the keystroke
equivalent of ABC ENTER. Refer to the ASCII table in Appendix A.
Code 39 Full ASCII and Trioptic Code 39 cannot be enabled simultaneously. If you get an
error beep when enabling Code 39 Full ASCII, disable Trioptic Code 39 and try again.
The scanner does not autodiscriminate between Code 39 and Code 39 Full ASCII.

Note: The “|” character and the NULL character cannot be embedded in
the barcode to be scanned when using Code 39 Full ASCII.
