IMAGETEAM 3800 User’s Guide

When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the host

computer along with the bar code data. This group of bar code data and

additional, user-defined data is called a “message string.” The selections in this

section are used to build the user-defined data into the message string.

Prefix and Suffix characters are data characters that can be sent before and

after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all

symbologies, or only with specific symbologies. The following illustration

shows the breakdown of a message string:

Points to Keep In Mind

D It is not necessary to build a message string. The selections in this chapter

are only used if you wish to alter the default settings. Default prefix = None.

Default suffix = None.

D A prefix or suffix may be added or cleared from one symbology or all

symbologies.

D You can add any prefix or suffix from the ASCII chart (pg. 4–5 ), plus Code

I.D. and Aim I.D.

D You can string together several entries for several symbologies at one time.

D Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear on

the output.
