If you want to control the Scanner's beeper from the host, you will also probably want to
disable the good transmission beep that is emitted when the code is received from the cra-
dle. (See
Wireless Beeper Features on page 258
).
The message field can store plain text and escape sequences.
•
Escape sequences are interpreted as commands.
•
Plain text is directly printed on the display. If writing beyond the end of line, the display
does not wrap automatically. Extra characters are ignored. Control characters are not
interpreted (i.e. LF, FF, etc.).

NOTES:
•
Since CR is used as the message terminator, you must use ESC [ G or ESC E to print a
CR.
•
The cursor row position
is not
affected by the currently selected font. The display always
has 4 rows, so when writing with the large font, actually two rows are written to: the cur-
rent one and the one below it. You will need
two
ESC E commands to step from one row
to the next when using the large font.
•
The cursor column position
is
affected by the currently selected font. Therefore, column
6 is 36 pixels from the left border only if you last selected the 6x8 font; otherwise it could
be 48 or 72 pixels from the left border.

and the row below it using the 12x16 font which allows for two

which allows for four rows of sixteen characters on the display.
ESC # 7
Medium font: subsequent characters are written using the 8x8
font, which allows for 4 rows of 12 characters on the display.
