Serialization (Sequential Data)
Advanced, Independent Example
In a multi-sequence serialization, where the second set of values is NOT dependent on the first set
(that is, the Linked box is NOT checked), the two sequences increment sequentially, independent of
each other.
Example: Two sequences that increment independently:
Advanced, Dependent Example
In a multi-sequence “linked” serialization (the Linked box is checked), the second set of values is
dependent on the first set. The second sequence holds its initial value until the first sequence
completes, after which it moves to the next value.
Example: Two sequences that increment dependently.
Add Serialization
To add serialization to labels:
1. Position the cursor on the label where you want the serialization to display.
2. Press SERIAL.
3. Enter the values for the first (or only) sequence.
• In the Start Value field, enter the start value of the sequence. If the start value is larger than
the end value, the series will decrement automatically.
• In the End Value field, enter the end value of the sequence.
• In the Increment field, enter the amount to increment each value in the sequence. For
example, a sequence beginning with 1 with an increment of 2 yields: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and so on.
4. For a simple sequence, navigate to OK and press ENTER. If you wish to add a second
sequence, continue. The remaining steps result in one complex sequence on the labels. To
have the two sequences appear in different places on the label, see “To add multiple
sequences, displayed at different locations on the label:” on page 49.
5. Select the Add Seq 2 box.
6. Under Sequence #2, enter the Start Value, End Value, and Increment.
