Adding Barcode
Prefixes

If you are going to scan multiple fields, you will need to create barcodes

that contain a 1 or 2 digit prefix. This prefix identifies the field you are scan-

ning. You may use this if you are transferring accounts from a different

accounting system like the Paragon®, or from a set of pre-printed barcode

labels that have a prefix as part of the barcode. You can then scan these

barcodes when the Main screen displays IntelliLink® Control Center.
To set the prefix value:
1. Press the Menu key on the control center, then select Set Up.

2. Press the down arrow key and then select Barcode Scanner.

3. At the "Barcode Scanner Setup" menu, select Barcode Prefixes.

4. Select the Prefix Size and then select 1 or 2 whichever is appropriate.

6. When you select the barcode prefix, the default value for that option

7. Press the Enter key.

8. As soon as you make your selection, the "Barcode Scanner Setup"

menu reappears. You can make other selections or press the left arrow

key to return to the Set Up menu.
