You may wish to require the data to conform to a data format you have created
and saved. The following settings can be applied to your data format:
Data Formatter On, Not Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix
Scanned data is modified according to your data format, and prefixes and
suffixes are transmitted.
Data Formatter On, Not Required, Drop Prefix/Suffix
Scanned data is modified according to your data format. If a data format is
found for a particular symbol, those prefixes and suffixes are not transmitted.
If a data format is not found for that symbol, the prefixes and suffixes are
transmitted.
Data Format Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix
Scanned data is modified according to your data format, and prefixes and
suffixes are transmitted. Any data that does not match your data format
requirements generates an error tone and the data in that bar code is not
transmitted. If you wish to process this type of bar code without generating an
error tone, see
Primary/Alternate Data Formats.
