CODE 93: Control Character Override: OFF

<>



Use this option to disable all Edits, Macros, Strings, and the Type ID for CODE 93 bar codes that contain control characters.
When this option is enabled and a CODE 93 containing control characters is read, the special key macros are applied, and the
data is transmitted to the computer. With this option enabled, you can use bar codes with special control characters to control
the computer system without going through the standard editing procedures.

CODE 93: Laser/CCD Redundancy: OFF

<>



Use this option to control the Laser/CCD redundancy for CODE 93 bar codes. With this option enabled, a CODE 93 bar code
must be read twice in a row when using a Laser or CCD device, to be considered a good read. This option provides additional
security when scanning poorly printed or damaged bar codes.





Note: Using this option does not require you to physically read the same bar code twice to get a good read. The scanner
continuously sweeps across the bar code the number of times necessary when this mode is enabled, therefore requiring no
additional operator intervention.


Select Option Group: MSI/PLESSEY GROUP
Select this option group to modify the individual settings for the MSI/PLESSEY decoder. Once you have selected this option
group, you may cursor down to configure each of the following decoder options.

MSI/PLESSEY: Decoder: ON

<>



Use this option to enable or disable the MSI/PLESSEY decoder. The default for this option is ON.

MSI/PLESSEY: Check Digit: MOD 10

<>



MSI/PLESSEY bar codes can contain a few different combinations of check digits. Use this option to configure the
combinations of check digits, choose from "MOD 10", "MOD 10, MOD 10", or "MOD 11, MOD 11".

MSI/PLESSEY: Send Check Digit: OFF

<>

Use this option to have the decoder either send the FIRST, FIRST & SECOND, or No (OFF) check digit to the computer.

MSI/PLESSEY: ISBN Decoder: OFF

<>

Use this option to enable decoding of 11 digit MSI/Plessey bar codes that contain a 10 digit ISBN number with an additional
MOD 11 check digit.

MSI/PLESSEY: Maximum Length: 63

<>

MSI/PLESSEY: Minimum Length: 3

<>



Use these options to configure the minimum and maximum lengths of MSI/PLESSEY bar codes that can be read. If you
configure the Maximum Length to 10 characters and the Minimum Length to 5 characters, the decoder will not read
MSI/PLESSEY bar codes with less than 5 characters and more than 10 characters.





Note: The Maximum and Minimum Length options are ignored if you enable the Fixed Length option.


MSI/PLESSEY: Fixed Length: OFF

<>



Use this option to configure the MSI/PLESSEY decoder to read only fixed length bar codes. When this option is enabled the
following two prompts (Fixed Length #1 and Fixed Length #2) are used to set the two different sizes of MSI/PLESSEY bar codes
that will be allowed.

MSI/PLESSEY: Fixed Length #1: 6

<>

MSI/PLESSEY: Fixed Length #2: 14

<>



These options are used to define the Fixed Length requirements for MSI/PLESSEY bar codes. These two options are only used
if the Fixed Length option is set to ON.

<>

MSI/PLESSEY: Type ID: l DEC 108 HEX 6C

ASCII ALT



<>

MSI/PLESSEY: ISBN Type ID: f DEC 102 HEX 66

ASCII ALT



Use these options to configure the Type IDs for MSI/PLESSEY and MSI/PLESSEY ISBN bar codes. Type ID's can be
transmitted as a prefix or a suffix to the bar code data, for more information see OTHER: Send Bar Code Type ID on page 18.
