Using Accumulate Mode
You can use Accumulate mode to collect data from a series of bar code labels and enter
them as a single label. When you put the terminal in Accumulate mode, the terminal will
collect all scanned bar code labels in the terminal’s buffer until you scan either the Enter
or Exit Accumulate mode command.
As you accumulate the data from bar code labels, the data is visible on the bottom line of
the screen. You can edit the accumulated data with the Backspace, Clear, and Enter
commands.
Backspace This command deletes the last character from the current data record you
are accumulating.
Clear This command deletes the entire data record you are accumulating.
Enter This command will enter data as a record and leaves the terminal in Accumulate
mode.
Note: If you are not in Accumulate mode, the Backspace, Clear, and Enter commands
have no effect and you will hear an error beep.
When you exit Accumulate mode, the accumulated data is “entered” as a data record. Up
to 250 characters can be held in the buffer. If the data record count exceeds 250
characters, the data is truncated. If you reset the terminal (software or hardware reset),
you exit Accumulate mode, the entire buffer is cleared, and all data accumulated is lost.
To use Accumulate mode
The syntax to use the Enter Accumulate command is:
+/ data
where:
+/ is the syntax for the Enter Accumulate mode command.
data is the optional data you want to enter. Data can be a reader command that is
executed when you exit Accumulate mode.
1. Scan this bar code label to Enter Accumulate mode:
