Rules

4 QuickScan

Using ADF Barcodes

When you program a rule, make sure the rule is logically correct.

Plan ahead before you start scanning.

To program each data formatting rule:

Start the Rule —

Scan the barcode "Begin New Rule" on page 9.

Criteria —

Scan the barcodes for all pertinent criteria. Criteria can include code type

(e.g., Code 128), code length, or data that contains a specific character string (e.g., the

digits “129”). These options are described in Chapter 4, Criteria.

Actions —

Scan all actions related to, or affecting, these criteria. The actions of a rule

specify how to format the data for transmission. These options are described in "ADF

Barcode Menu Example" on page 5

Save the Rule —

Scan the barcode "Save Rule" on page 9. This places the rule in the

“top” position in the rule buffer.

• If you make errors during this process, some special-purpose barcodes may be use-

ful: "Erase Criteria And Start Again" on page 10, "Erase Actions And Start

Again" on page 10

, "Erase Previously Saved Rule" on page 10, etc.

• Criteria, actions, and entire rules may be erased by scanning the appropriate bar-

code (see barcodes beginning on page 13).

• Use the Product Reference Guide PRG as a for basic direction regarding the pro-

gramming steps. For more information on scanning, see the Quick Reference

Guide (ARG). See References on page 1 for information about how to access

these other product publications.
