Global Prefix/Suffix
Up to 20 ASCII characters may be added as a prefix (in a position before the bar
code data) and/or as a suffix (in a position following the bar code data) as indi-
cated.

Example: Setting a Prefix
In this example, we’ll set a prefix for all symbologies.
1. Determine which ASCII character(s) are to be
added to scanned bar code
data. In this example, we’ll add a dollar sign (‘$’) as a prefix.
2. Go to
page 50
and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code,
then scan the SET GLOBAL PREF
IX bar code.
3. Reference the
ASCII Chart on page 287
on the inside back cover of this man-
ual to find the hex value assigned to the desired character. The corre-
sponding hex number for the ‘$’ characte
r is 24
. To enter this selection
code, scan the ‘2’ and ‘4’ bar codes from
Appendix D, Keypad
.
NOTE
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar
code to
abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again
at the beginning.
4. If less than the expected string of 20 characters are selected, scan the
ENTER/EXIT bar code to terminate the string.
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code once agai
n to
exit Programming Mode.
6. The resulting message string would appear as follows:
Scanned bar code data: 12345
Resulting message string output: $12345
