The scanner driver searches the beginning of the bar code data for the type of ID speci-
fied in the Data Options tab -- Enable Code ID field plus any custom identifiers.
When a code ID match is found as the scanner driver processes incoming bar code data,
if the symbology is disabled, the bar code is rejected. Otherwise, the other settings in
the dialog are applied and the bar code is processed.
If the symbology is disabled, all other fields on this dialog are dimmed.
If there are customized settings, uncheck the Enable checkbox for the All symbology.
This results in disabling all symbologies except the customized ones.
Min
This field specifies the minimum length that the bar code data (not including Code ID)
must meet to be processed.
Any bar code scanned that is less than the number of characters specified in the Min
field is rejected. The default for this field is 1.
Max
This field specifies the maximum length that the bar code data (not including Code ID)
can be processed. Any bar code scanned that has more characters than specified in the
Max field is rejected. The default for this field is All (9999).
If the value entered is greater than the maximum value allowed for that symbology, the
maximum valid length is used instead.
Strip Leading/Trailing Control
Start > Settings > Control Panel > Data Collection > Data Options tab > Symbology but-
ton
This group of controls determines what data is removed from the collected data before
the data is buffered for the application. When all values are set, Code ID takes prece-
dence over Leading and Trailing; Bar Code Data stripping is performed last. Stripping
occurs before the Prefix and Suffix are added, so does not affect them.
If the total number of characters being stripped is greater than the number of charac-
ters in the collected data, it becomes a zero byte data string.
If, in addition, Strip Code ID is enabled, and no prefix or suffix is configured, the pro-
cessing will return a zero-byte data packet, which will be rejected.
The operation of each type of stripping is defined below:
Leading
This strips the number of characters specified from the beginning of the collected data
(not including Code ID). The data is stripped unconditionally. This action is disabled by
default.
