7.2.3.2 Code Identification (ID)
To add the Code Identification (ID), send a Code ID command with the command to set a
prefix/suffix.
Code ID Commands
Use one of these code identification methods:
• OPTICON Code ID. For more information, see “Code ID Table” on page 101.
• AIM/ISO Code ID. For more information, see “Code Option AIM/ISO15424 Code ID
Prefix/Suffix Value” on page 102.
The code identifier is transmitted in ISO 15424 format:
]cM
where:
• ] is ASCII decimal value 93
• c is a code character
• M is modifier character
Example Code ID command:
To add “<OPTICON Code ID>” to the all codes prefix, send this command:
<Esc>RY$2<CR>
7.2.3.3 Code Length
To add the code length, send a code length command with the command to set a prefix/suffix.
For 1D barcodes, the code length is transmitted as 2 digits (excluding prefix and suffix
characters). For 2D barcodes, the code length is transmitted as 6 digits. You can also send the
length as 6 digits for both 1D and 2D barcodes. These direct input characters are counted as 1
of the 4 digits in the prefix and suffix.
Code Length Commands
Example Code Length command:
To set the prefix for all codes to <Code length (1D/2D: 2/6 digit)>, send this command:
<ESC>RY$3<CR>
7.2.3.4 Code Coordinates
The code coordinate is transmitted as the pixel coordinate of the image sensor. You can output
the vertexes or the center of the code within the image.
