Chapter 4 Prefix & Suffix
1D Scanner
After a successful barcode reading, a string containing numbers, letters or symbols will be returned.
In real applications, barcode data may be found insufficient for your needs. You may wish to include
additional information such as barcode type, data acquisition time or delimiter in data being scanned.
Adding extra information to printed barcodes does not seem like a sensible solution since that will
increase the barcode size and make them inflexible. Instead, we come up with the idea of appending
prefix and suffix to the data without making any change to barcodes. We will show you how to conduct the
configuration in the following sections.
The scanner can be configured to transmit barcode data in the following format:
[Code ID] + [Custom Prefix] + [DATA] + [Custom Suffix] + [Terminating Character]
Note: [DATA] must be transmitted while user can decide whether to transmit any of the rest parts.
