Multiple Templates
This feature sets up multiple templates for OCR decoding. To do this, follow the procedure described in OCR
Template on page 319 (scan the OCR Template barcode, and then barcodes corresponding to numbers and
letters to form the template expression, and then
End of Message) for each template in the multiple template string,
using a capital letter X as a separator between templates.
For example, set the OCR Template as 99999XAAAAA to decode OCR strings of either 12345 or ABCDE.
