Read Fail Message
Read Fail message refers to the data string to be transmitted to host application when the
reading of barcode is unsuccessful. This allows the application program to detect the
information and react accordingly.
The Read Fail message can be modified by following steps:
1. Look up the hexadecimal code of the required Read Fail message in the ASCII code
character table in Appendix A.
2. Confirm whether programming of scanner is enabled. If not, scan the "Enable
Programming” setup barcode on page 2.
3. Scan the "Modify Read Fail Message" barcode.
4. Scan the data setting bardcodes in Appendix B for the hexadecimal data codes of
the character in the messaage (2 hexadecimal digits per character).
5. Scan the "Save Settings" barcode.
Example: Modify Read Fail message to "FAIL"
1. From the ASCII code character table, the hexadecimal values of the 4-character
messaage "FAIL" is "46", "41", "49", "4C".
2. Confirm that programming of scanner is enabled.
3. Scan the "Modify Read Fail Message" barcode.
4. Scan the data setting bardcodes "4", "6", "4", "1", "4", "9", "4", "C" in order.
5. Scan the "Save Settings" barcode.
