being created for each data file captured. To work around this issue, simply add a
Rename action task to set a unique file name (Ex. %u) to each new file before the
Barcode Scan task, after each secondary input.
Change Emulation
Change Emulation action tasks are used to tell the tasks that follow them to use a different
emulation to format the data they receive (see: "About data emulation" on page54). These
tasks do not perform any operation as such on the data, but rather they modify the way
subsequent tasks process the data they receive.
Change Emulation action tasks are typically used when a secondary input task brings new
data that is not structured like the initial data into the process. By default, every task included in
a process uses the emulation associated with the sample data file to structure the data before
processing it. Any task that must use a different emulation must be preceded by a Change
Emulation action task. All the tasks that follow on the same branch will use the emulation
chosen in the Change Emulation task.
Input
Any data file.
Processing
The emulation for the following tasks is changed to the selected emulation.
Output
The original data file, metadata and job infos are not modified. Only the emulation is changed.

Note to PlanetPress Suite users: The options of this task are basically the same as the Data Selector
in PlanetPress Design; see PlanetPress Design User Guide.
