Barcode Options - Only on Selected Models
Barcode options refers to modifying the auto generate barcode function. The barcode options can be
selected in two ways. Either holding F3 down when on the new barcode screen or by the TnT options menu.
Both have the same menu options expect when entering barcode options VIA TnT options. These menu
options are:
Set the number of digit for barcodes.
Set the auto generate barcode number
Use leading zeros for the auto generate number.
Search all sites on barcode search (only available from TnT options menu).
Search All Sites
Allows the TnT to search all sites listed in the site names section for the given barcode. If this option has not
been altered then by default search all site is disabled. When disabled the TnT can only search for barcodes
that are in the site selected (Indicated by the site name in new barcode / search barcode screen).
Search all sites is useful disabled and enabled. For example, you may have many items with the same
barcode number in different sites. Disabling this feature allow you isolate a particular barcode with ease. If you
have a barcode but you are unsure which site it is in then you should enable search all sites.
Be careful when search all sites is enabled. If a barcode is found in another site the site name will change
when you return the new barcode screen.
Other Features
Barcode Printing Function - Only on Selected Memory Models
This utility will print out barcode labels from what is typed on the screen. The idea is to save time by storing
these barcodes in a book or collection. From here you can quickly scan a barcode without having to retype the
text back into the TnT unit. To access this feature:
Hold the key from the new barcode / search barcode screen.
You will be required to select your printer model. The Wavecom printer has a different print orientation to the
Wavecom model. Selecting the wrong printer model will make the tag print incorrectly.
Press the key if you have a Wavecom or plus model printer.
Press the key if you have a Wavecom model printer.
Type the text you want for your barcode. If you go past the end of the screen the text will wrap. A maximum
of 32 characters can be entered.
Press the key to print the barcode.
Press the key to return back to the new barcode screen.
