3. Barcode scanners can send additional information apart from the expected
barcode e.g. symbology (type of barcode). It is advisable to disable such
information because RADWAG devices and software do not use it.
4. Some RADWAG systems can omit unnecessary information by using
parameters that mark the beginning and the length of the code required to
analyse.
5. A special protocol is required in order the code be received by RADWAG
equipment. It is required to program an appropriate prefix and suffix. Prefix
– one byte 01 hexadecimally, suffix one byte 0D hexadecimally.
6. Most barcode scanners allow to enable/disable different symbologies
(barcode types).
7. Programming of scanners is usually performed by reading
special barcodes or by using an external software tool.
8. Scanners marketed together with RADWAG systems are
always configured according to the rules above.
