Character Conversion
Character conversion is an eight byte configuration item. The eight bytes are 4 character
pairs represented in hexadecimal ASCII values. The first character in the pair is the char-
acter that will be converted. The second character in the pair is the character to convert
to. If the character to convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion is done.
For example, if you have the character conversion configuration item set to the follow-
ing: 41423132FFFFFFFF
The first pair is 4142 or AB (41 hex is an ASCII capital A, 42 hex is an ASCII capital B) and
the second pair is 3132 or 12 (31 hex is an ASCII 1, 32 is an ASCII 2). The other two pairs
are FFFF and FFFF.
With the label, AB12BA21, it would look as follows after the character
conversion: BB22BB22.
The A characters were converted to B characters and the 1 characters were converted to
2 characters. Nothing is done with the last two character pairs, since they are all FF.
To set Character Conversion:
1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code.
2. Scan the bar code for "
Character Conversion" on page 69
3. Determine the desired string. Sixteen positions must be determined as in the
above example. Next, turn to the ASCII Chart on
page 290 on the inside back cover
of this manual and find the equivalent hex digits needed to fulfill the string.
4. Turn to
Appendix D, Keypad and scan the bar codes representing the hex charac-
ters determined in the previous step.
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code to exit Programming Mode.
NOTE: If less than the expected string of 16 characters are selected, scan
the ENTER/EXIT bar code twice to accept the selections and exit Program-
ming Mode.
