Important: For detailed instructions on inserting characters or special keys
(e.g., <ENTER>, <DEL>, etc.) in these fields, refer to "Global
Macros" on page 181 to page 183.
HOWEVER, keep in mind that these string entry fields do NOT
accept Function keys and Arrow keys.
In #n
This string entry parameter is compared with the decoded bar code reading.
If there is a match, the “Out” string is translated into the decoded bar code.
The first character of the “In” string specifies where the rest of the string can
occur within the decoded bar code reading.
The possible values for this character include:
b Compare with the beginning of decoded bar code.
e Compare with the end of decoded bar code.
x Compare with the entire decoded bar code.
a Compare anywhere within the decoded bar code (default).
If the first character is none of ‘b’, ‘e’, ‘x’ or ‘a’, the character is assumed to be an
‘a’ and is stripped from the rest of the “In” entry.
Note: Translation of the decoded bar code occurs after all other modifications
to the bar code have been done (e.g., prefix char, suffix char, strip, etc.).
Out #n
If there is a match between the decoded bar code and the corresponding “In” string,
the decoded bar code will be translated into the “Out” string. This string entry
parameter can be null, or it may contain any combination of standard and special
characters (e.g., function keys, <ENTER>, etc.).
