Configuring the Scanner 4–9
Publication 2755-6.4
Data Format Options
Prefix / Suffix
You can add a prefix/suffix to bar code data. To enter a prefix/suffix,
you must scan a four digit number (four bar codes) that represents
the ASCII equivalent value for each character (See ASCII Characters
in Appendix C). When you enter the last digit of a prefix or suffix,
the scanner lets you know that you have entered a valid value by
providing a high-low-high beep.
The default prefix/suffix is the ENTER key (ASCII equivalent
1073).
For example, to add the prefix < (ASCII equivalent 1060) to bar
code data, scan these labels:
– Prefix
– 1 (under Prefix/Suffix Values)
– 0 (under Prefix/Suffix Values)
– 6 (under Prefix/Suffix Values)
– 0 (under Prefix/Suffix Values)
For example, to add the suffix > (ASCII equivalent 1062) to bar code
data, scan these labels:
– Suffix
– 1 (under Prefix/Suffix Values)
– 0 (under Prefix/Suffix Values)
– 6 (under Prefix/Suffix Values)
– 2 (under Prefix/Suffix Values)
Transmit No Read Message
When enabled, this option transmits “NR” when a symbol does not
decode. Enabled prefixes and suffixes are appended around this
message. The default is disabled.
