Setting Non-Symbology Specific Prefix(es)

These characters will be added to the standard label format when your
host system has specific and unique requirements for information added
to the barcode label data before it is sent to the host. Identify your
specific system requirements before adding or modifying these settings,
then...

1. Look at the ASCII chart shown on page 38 and identify the

ASCII character(s) and the corresponding Hex Code(s) for the
ASCII characters you will use as prefixes.

For example, if you are going to send two prefix characters as
'STX' (start transmit) and 'SP' (Space). The ASCII chart shows
that 'STX' equals 02

hex

and 'SP' equals 20

hex

.

2. Scan the SET label.

3. Scan the SET PREFIX label on this page.

4. Scan the digits that correspond to the Hex Values.

For the example in step four, scan 0, 2, 2, 0.

NOTE

If you make a mistake, or lose your place while setting this option,
scan the END label to exit Programming Mode. The scanner will
sound an error tone (six rapid beeps)
to indicate that programming
was incomplete, and the setting will remain as it was before
entering Programming Mode.

5. Scan END.

You have added a two character prefix to all label data, regard-
less of label symbology, that will be added to the label data
before it is sent to the host.
