2) Mod 10 Check
When you select this option, a check digit is added at the end of the bar
code after a good read for transmission to the host. The host can then vali-
date the transmitted data using the check. This feature is not needed with
modem transmission protocols.
The bar code number is divided by 10, until the number (or modulus) is
less than 10. If the modulus subtracted fr om 10 (remainder) is equal to
zero, then the bar code number is valid.
3) Concatenate (6400, 5055, 700 Series, CK30, CK31, CV60)
Each bar code read is added to the end of the previous bar code read until
the 6400, 5055, or 700 Series Terminal meets a condition f or cing trans-
mission to the host.
When this option is OFF, each bar code read is placed at the beginning of
the current input field. After a bar code is placed in a field, any subsequent
read replaces the first read.
4) BC Type Char (6400, 59XX, 17XX, 11XX, 700 Series, CK30, CK31, CV60)
This adds a character associated with the bar code type at the beginning of
the scanned bar code. See page 366 for bar code type characters.
5) Stream Scan
If the scanned bar code is too big for the input field, the overflow informa-
tion appears in the next field and continues until the entire bar code is en-
tered. When this option is OFF, and the scanned bar code is too big for
the input field, the overflow information is dropped.
6) Scan All Flds
When this option is selected, the scanner is enabled when the cursor is in
an input field. When this option is OFF, the host computer must enable
the scanner for each input field that requires scanned data.
7) More
This brings you additional scanning options that adjust scanning timeout
and characters sent before and after the scanned data.
S 1) Scan Timeout (59XX, 17XX, 11XX)
Use this option to adjust the scanning timeout period from 1 to 200
seconds. When using a proximity-detect scanner, you can shorten the
timeout period to speed up scanning while also reducing the duration of
errant scans. With a long-range scanner, you may want to increase the
timeout period to ensure suf ficient aiming time.
