CHAPTER 6: SETUP FOR PALM OS

75

Insert Special: First tap in the Prefix or Suffix field to indicate where

you would like to enter special data, such as a date stamp, time stamp,
tab, etc. Then tap on the Insert Special drop-down menu and select the
type of special data to enter.

Prefix: Tap to enter characters you would like appended before

scanned data (128 character maximum). Besides special data items,
only printable ASCII characters can be used.

Suffix: Tap to enter characters you would like appended after scanned

data (128 character maximum). Besides special data items, only
printable ASCII characters can be used. The default suffix is a carriage
return [CR].

Launch App: Check the box, then use the drop-down menu that

appears to select an application that you would like SocketScan to
automatically enter data into whenever you press the trigger button.
The application will launch only when you are outside of SocketScan
(i.e., SocketScan is running in the background).

If you configured SocketScan to launch an application, whenever
you scan data into a document, the data will only be entered after
any existing data, no matter where you place the cursor. You will
not be able to scan data into the middle of existing data.

For example, if you already scanned three lines of data into Memo,
the next data you scan will appear on the fourth line, even if you
place the cursor on a previous line before scanning.

3. After entering any settings, tap OK to save the changes.
