ISBN ID Setting
Sets the Code ID used for labels that are translated to ISBN/ISSN num-
bers. The Code I.D. for this symbology consists of one or two user-
selectable ASCII characters. It can be appended previous to or following
the transmitted bar code data depending on how this feature is enabled.
Example: Setting the ISBN ID
To configure this feature:
1. Determine which character(s) you would like to use to represent
ISBN/ISSN translated labels. Reference Appendix A, ASCII Conver-
sion Chart
, to find the corresponding hex values for your chosen
character(s). In this example we’ll set a Code I.D. of “I” to repre-
sent ISBN/ISSN. The value from the table corresponding to ‘I’ is
49. This value will be used in a step to follow.
2. Scan the START bar code
3. Scan the SET ISBN CODE I.D. bar code.
4. Turn to
Appendix B, Alpha-Numeric Pad and scan the bar codes ‘4’
and ‘9’ (the value 49 determined in an earlier step to represent a
Code I.D. of ‘I’).
5. Scan the SET bar code to accept the digits scanned.
6. Turn to the
Data Editing chapter and scan the CODE ID POSI-
TION: BEFORE BAR CODE DATA label.
7. Scan the END bar code to exit Programming Mode.
8. The resulting message string for converted ISBN/ISSN labels
would appear as follows:
Scanned bar code data: 97801234565
Resulting message string output: I97801234565
NOTE
Features configured using the
Data Editing chapter are
universal and will affect all symbologies.
