TRAKKER Antares 2420 and 2425 Hand-Held Terminal User’s Manual
3-16
When you create a bar code label to set several configuration commands, follow these
rules:
• The bar code label must be printed using Code 39 or Code 93 symbology.
• The bar code label must include the start and stop character. Most bar code printing
utilities automatically include the start and stop character.
• The bar code label must start with $+ (Change Configuration command).
• Each configuration command must include the command syntax and the value for the
command. For example, BV is the command syntax for Beep Volume and the value 4
sets the beep volume to very loud.
• If you set one configuration command to a string of ASCII characters and another
configuration command follows, you must enclose the value in quotes. If you do not
include the quotation marks, the terminal will interpret everything after the first
command as data and will not find the second configuration command.
For example, to set the preamble to BV, use $+ADBV (no quotes are needed). To set
the preamble to BV and turn off the beep volume, use $+AD"BV"BV0, or change the
order and use $+BV0ADBV. To clear the preamble and postamble from a single
label, use $+AD""AE.
Note: To scan a Code 39 bar code label that includes quotes or periods, you must
configure the terminal to use Code 39 in Full ASCII mode. For help, see “Code
39” in Chapter 9.
• To include quotation marks when you set a value, the entire value must be enclosed
in quotation marks. Type two sets of quotation marks ("") to include one quotation
mark as the value for a command. For example, to set the preamble to ABC"D, use
$+AD"ABC""D".
When you scan bar code labels, you change the terminal’s current runtime configuration.
The changes are not saved in the terminal’s flash memory. For help, see the next section,
“Saving Configuration Changes in Flash Memory.”
