Configuring the SCANTEAM 3700 4–7

Set Preamble Command Kd

COMMAND

Parameter ASCII Option

Enable 0 no

1 yes * (Port ID, Code ID)

Data one to four ASCII characters

Sending the configuration command Kd sets the preamble characters. The preamble

option may be enabled or disabled; if enabled, up to four preamble characters may be

defined. Any ASCII character can be specified except NUL, ACK, NAK, DC1, DC2,

DC3, DC4 or DEL. The character SUB should only be used as the first character in a

pair, with the second character being either a 1 or a 2. SUB 1 causes the 3700 to include

the Port ID in the preamble, while SUB 2 specifies that the Code ID should be included.

Table 4.1 lists the Code ID values. The default setting is preamble enabled, Port ID and

Code ID characters sent with data strings.

Tip: When character pairs SUB 1 and SUB 2 are specified in the preamble, the SUB

characters are not counted toward the maximum number of ASCII characters

allowed (four).
