Advanced Data Formatting 12 - 5
Note also that ADF rules are actually created when using the standard data editing functions. Scan options are
entered as ADF rules, and the hierarchy mentioned above also applies to them. For the digital imager scanner, this
applies to prefix/suffix programming in the parameter Scan Data Transmission Format.
These rules reside in the same “rule list” as ADF Rules, so the order of their creation is also important.
Default Rules
Every unit has a default rule to send all scan data. Units with custom software may have one or more default rules
burned in. The rules hierarchy checks user programmable rules first, then the default rules. Default rules can be
disabled by entering the following general rule in the user programmable buffer:
When receiving scan data, send all data.
Since this rule always applies, ADF will never go into the default rules.
Special Commands
Pause Duration
This parameter, along with the Send Pause parameter on page 12-25, allows a pause to be inserted in the data
transmission. Pauses are set by scanning a two-digit number (i.e., two bar codes), and are measured in 0.1 second
intervals. For example, scanning bar codes “0” and “1” inserts a 0.1 second pause; “0” and “5” inserts a 0.5 second
delay. See
Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes . To correct an error or change a selection, scan Cancel on page
D-3 .
