Code 128 Message Length
Scan the barcodes below to change the message length. Refer to Message Length
Description (page 68) for additional information. Minimum and Maximum lengths
= 0-80. Minimum Default = 0, Maximum Default = 80.
Code 128 Append
This function allows the scanner to append the data from several Code 128
barcodes together before transmitting them to the host computer. When the
scanner encounters a Code 128 barcode with the append trigger character(s), it
buffers Code 128 barcodes until it reads a Code 128 barcode that does not have
the append trigger. The data is then transmitted in the order in which the barcodes
were read (FIFO). Default = On.
Code 128 Code Page
Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data
received does not display with the proper characters, it may be because the
barcode being scanned was created using a code page that is different from the
one the host program is expecting. If this is the case, scan the barcode below,
select the code page with which the barcodes were created (see ISO 2022/ISO 646
Character Replacements on page 168), and scan the value and the Save barcode
from the Programming Chart. The data characters should then appear properly.
