Output Data Editing
Transmit Code ID Character
A Code ID character identifies the code type of a scanned bar code. This is useful
when decoding more than one code type. In addition to any single character prefix
already selected, the Code ID character is inserted between the prefix and the
decoded symbol.
Select no Code ID character, a Symbol Code ID character, or an AIM Code ID
character.
Note: If you enable Symbol Code ID Character or AIM Code ID Character, and enable Transmit “No
Read” Messag, the digital scanner appends the code ID for Code 39 to the NR message.
Prefix/Suffix Values
You can append a prefix and/or one or two suffixes to scan data for use in data
editing. To set a value for a prefix or suffix, scan a four-digit number (i.e., four bar
codes) that corresponds to that value.
When using host commands to set the prefix or suffix, set the key category
parameter to 1, then set the 3-digit decimal value.
To correct an error or change a selection, scan Cancel.
Note: To use Prefix/Suffix values, first set the Scan Data Transmission Format as shown below.
