Magellan™ 9800i Scanner
Global Prefix
This feature applies to RS-232 interfaces (Standard, Wincor-Nixdorf, and Single Cable). It
specifies the prefix that is added to beginning of label transmission.
To specify the Global Prefix Character(s):
1. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code.
2. Scan the bar code,
Set Global Prefix below. You’ll need to cover any unused bar codes to
ensure the scanner reads only the bar code you intend to scan.
3. Scan the appropriate characters/digits from the
Keypad in Appendix C that represent the
hex designation for the desired character(s). A table
containing the ASCII Character Set
and their corresponding Hex Values is available in the inside back cover of this manual.
ASCII parameters must be input by scanning a pair of hexadecimal digits for each charac-
ter. Thus, to set a two-character value of AB, bar codes containing
the digits ‘4’, ‘1’, ‘4’,
and ‘2’ must be scanned. The selectable range for this option is any hex value from 00 to
FF. Up to 20 hex pairs can be designated.
NOTE
To specify “no Global Prefix,” scan 00.
4. If designating the full 20 hex pairs, the scanner will automatically exit Programming
Mode when the appropriate amount of digits have been scanned. If designating less than
20 hex pairs, you can end the programming sequence early by scanning the
Terminate
Sequence
bar code.
5. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the
Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar
code.
