Decoded Data Packet Format

This parameter selects whether decoded data is transmitted in raw (unwrapped) format or in the packet format defined by the serial protocol. If raw format is selected, ACK/NAK handshaking cannot be used for decoded data.

Transport code ID characters

Parameter number

0x2D

Default

None

Code ID characters identify the barcode type. When the device may decode multiple barcode types, Code ID or AIM ID can be inserted between the prefix characters and the decoded data. See Code ID for Code ID characters and AIM code identifier for AIM ID characters.

Prefix/Suffix

Prefix/Suffix Values

Prefixes and suffixes can be appended to decoded data. To set a character value, look up the ASCII value in Character Reference Table and scan the corresponding 4-digit numeric setting barcode. Numeric setting barcodes are listed in Numeric Setup Codes.

To change the selection or cancel an incorrect entry, scan Cancel Barcode. When setting prefix/suffix values through serial commands, refer to the corresponding serial command description.

Suffix 2

Clear Data Format

Note

To make prefix/suffix values take effect, the corresponding data transmission format must be set.

Continuous Multiple Prefix/Suffix Setup Mode

Continuous setup mode is used to configure multiple prefixes or suffixes at one time. Set the prefix/suffix values first, then set the data transmission format.

Continuous Multiple Prefix Setup

By default, 1 prefix is supported, with a maximum of 10 prefixes. After scanning the corresponding setting barcode to enter continuous setup mode, scan the 4-digit numeric setting barcode for each prefix character according to the character table. The process ends automatically after 10 prefixes, or you can scan “Finish Continuous Prefix/Suffix Setup” to complete it earlier.

Note

Multiple prefixes take effect only with the “Multiple Prefixes + Data” or “Multiple Prefixes + Data + Multiple Suffixes” data transmission format.

Continuous Multiple Prefix Setup

Quick multiple-prefix example: AB (ASCII values: 0x41 and 0x42)

Continuous Multiple Suffix Setup

By default, 2 suffixes are supported, with a maximum of 10 suffixes. After scanning the corresponding setting barcode to enter continuous setup mode, scan the 4-digit numeric setting barcode for each suffix character according to the character table. The process ends automatically after 10 suffixes, or you can scan “Finish Continuous Prefix/Suffix Setup” to complete it earlier.

Note

Multiple suffixes take effect only with the “Data + Multiple Suffixes” or “Multiple Prefixes + Data + Multiple Suffixes” data transmission format.

Continuous Multiple Suffix Setup

Quick multiple-suffix example: AB (ASCII values: 0x41 and 0x42)

Finish or Exit Setup

Scan “Finish Continuous Multiple Prefix/Suffix Setup” or “Exit Prefix/Suffix Setup” to save the currently configured prefixes or suffixes and exit continuous setup mode.

Data Transmission Format

Scan the corresponding barcodes below to set the desired data transmission format. Each time a prefix or suffix is configured, scan the corresponding data transmission format again to make that prefix or suffix take effect. For example, if the original format is “Data + Suffix 1”, after setting a prefix you must scan “Prefix + Data” or “Prefix + Data + Suffix” to enable the prefix.

Set Prefix/Suffix by Barcode Type

Prefixes and suffixes can be set or cleared separately for a specified barcode type. To configure them, first scan the function setting barcode, then enter the barcode type index and the character values to be set.

Set Prefix

1. Scan the “Set Prefix by Barcode Type” setting barcode.

2. According to the barcode type index and Character Reference Table, scan the corresponding numeric setting barcodes. For example, for the QR Code type index 0xF1, scan 1, 2, 4, and 1.

3. Scan the prefix character to be set. For example, if the prefix is the digit 1, scan 1049 (0x31).

4. Scan “Exit Prefix/Suffix Setup” to finish the configuration.

Set Prefix by Barcode Type

Set Suffix

The steps for setting a suffix are the same as for setting a prefix: scan the following setting barcode first, then enter the barcode type index and suffix character values.

Set Suffix by Barcode Type

Clear Prefix/Suffix

To clear the prefix or suffix for a specified barcode type, first scan the corresponding clear setting barcode, then enter the barcode type index. For QR Code, for example, after entering the numeric setting barcodes corresponding to 0xF1, the QR Code prefix information is cleared.

Note

To clear prefixes for all barcode types, scan 1, 2, 5, and 5 (0xFF).
