Character Conversion
Character conversion is an eight byte configuration item. The eight bytes are 4 character pairs
represented in hexadecimal ASCII values. The first character in the pair is the character that will
be converted. The second character in the pair is the character to convert to. If the character to
convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion is done.
For example, if you have the character conversion configuration item set to the following:
41423132FFFFFFFF
T
he first pair is 4142 or AB (41 hex is an ASCII capital A, 42 hex is an ASCII capital B) and the
second pair is 3132 or 12 (31 hex is an ASCII 1, 32 is an ASCII 2). The other two pairs are FFFF
and FFFF.
With the label, AB12BA21, it would look as follows after the character conversion: BB22BB22.
The A characters were converted to B ch
ar
acters and the 1 characters were converted to 2 char-
acters. Nothing is done with the last two charact
er pairs, since they are all FF.
To set Character Conversion:
1. Go to page 66 and scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code.
2. Scan the “Configure Character Conversion” bar code.
3. Determine the desired string. S
i
xteen positions must be determined as in the above exam-
ple. Next, turn to the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual a
nd find the
equivalent hex digits needed to fulfill the string.
4. Turn to Appendix D, Keypad and scan the bar codes represen
ting the hex characters
determined in the previous step.
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code to exit Programming Mode.
If less than the expected string of 16 characters are selected, scan the ENTER/EXIT bar
code twice to accept the selections and exit Programming Mode.
