OCR User-Defined Variables

Product Reference Guide 8-9

You can string together as many templates as you need.

OCR User-Defined Variables

You can create up to two of your own user variables for an OCR tem-

plate. These variables will represent any OCR readable characters. The

user-defined variables are stored under the letters “g” and “h.” Creating

a user variable follows the same steps as creating a template, but instead

of scanning the

Enter OCR Template symbol, you scan the Enter User-

Defined Variable

symbol (page 8-16). The letters g and h can then be

used in an OCR template to define the variable you specified.

Example: You need a variable to represent the letters “A,” “B,” or “C.” The template

for this variable would be:

414243

To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font. Scan the

Enter User-Defined Variable g symbol (page 8-16). Scan 414243 from

the

Programming Chart (the hex characters for “A,” “B,” and “C”). Scan

Save OCR Template (page 8-17). This will let you read either A or B or

C in any position where you place the g. For example, you could create

the following template:

ddddddggg

This template would then let you read data that began with six digits,

and had an A, B, or C trailing. So you would be able to read:

654321ABC

654321BAC

654321CCC

Reading Multi-Row OCR

The PowerScan 2D is capable of decoding multi-row OCR text.

NOTE

Reading rows longer than sixteen characters is

not recommended.
