DataBar Omnidirectional Label ID

This feature specifies an DataBar Omnidirectional label ID to be added to

barcode data.

To set this feature:

NOTE

The programming feature, RS-232 Label ID Control, designates

whether the Label ID is transmitted as a prefix or suffix or if Label ID is

dis-

abled.

To set this feature:

1. Scan the SWITCH barcode.

2. Scan the barcode, SET DATABAR OMNIDIRECTIONAL

LABEL ID below. You’ll need to cover any unused barcodes on

this and the facing page to ensure the scanner reads only the bar-

code you intend to scan.

3. Scan the appropriate digits from the keypad in

Appendix C that

represent the desired Label ID characters; entered as two hex

pairs. A table

containing the ASCII Character Set and their corre-

sponding Hex Values is available in the inside back cover of this

manual. ASCII parameters must be input b

y scanning a pair of

hexadecimal digits for each character. Thus, to set a two-character

value of AB, barcodes containing the digits ‘4’, ‘1’, ‘4’, and ‘2’

must be scanned. The selectable range for this option is any hex

value from 00 to FF.

4. Complete the programming seque

nce by scanning the SWITCH

barcode.
