Setting Label

I.D. by

Symbology

To set symbology-specific label identifiers (Label I.D.):

1.

Look at the ASCII chart on the inside back cover, and identify
the ASCII character(s) and the corresponding Hex Code(s) for
the ASCII characters you will use as identifiers.

For example: You need to change the Label I.D. for UPC-A to ‘A1’.

2.

Scan the SET bar code on

page 58

.

3.

Scan the bar code starting on

page 58

representing the symbol-

ogy whose Label I.D. you wish to modify. Scan only one sym-
bology type per programming session.

In our example, we would scan the ‘UPC-A’ symbology bar code.

4.

Identify and scan the four digits from the

Appendix C: Keypad

on page 147 that correspond to the Hex Values you determined
in step one above. Return to this page and go to step five.

The hex values from the ASCII chart that correspond to ‘A1’ from our
example are as follows: 41 hex = ‘A’, and 31 hex = ‘1’. Thus, we would
scan digit programming bar codes in this order: 4, 1, 3, 1.

5.

Scan the END bar code on

page 60

.

You have changed the default Label I.D. for UPC-A from ‘A’ to ‘A1’.

NOTE

Successful programming requires 4 digits for
the Label I.D.
