Please Keep In Mind...
• Modifying a message string is not a mandatory requirement. Data editing is sophisticated
feature allowing highly customizable output for advanced users. Factory default settings
for data editing is typically set to NONE.
• A prefix or suffix may be applied (reference the Symbologies chapter for these settings)
across all symbologies (set via the Global featur
es in this chapter).
• You can add any character from the ASCII Character Set (from 00-FF) on the inside
back cover of this manual as a prefix, suffix or Label ID.
• Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which
you want them to appear on the output.
Global Prefix/Suffix
Up to 20 ASCII characters may be added as a prefix (in a position before the bar code
data) and/or as a suffix (in a position following the bar code data) as indicated in
Figure 4.

Example: Setting a Prefix
In this example, we’ll set a prefix for all symbologies.
1. Determine which ASCII character(s) are to be added to scanned bar code data. In this
example, we’ll add a dollar sign (‘$’) as a prefix.
2. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code.
3. Scan the SET GLOBAL PREFIX bar code.
4. Reference the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual, to find the hex value
assigned to the desir
ed character. The corresponding hex number for the ‘$’ character is
24. To enter this selection code, scan the ‘2’ and ‘4’ bar codes from Appendix E, Key-
pad.
NOTE
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar
co
de to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at
the beginning.
