it has already been stripped.
Hat Encoding
for a list of characters with their hex and hat-encoded values.
To enable a prefix, check the Prefix checkbox and enter the desired string in the text box.
The default is disabled (unchecked) with a blank text string. When bar code data is processed,
the Prefix string is sent to the output buffer before any other data.
Because all stripping operations have already occurred, stripping settings do not affect the
prefix. The prefix is added to the output buffer for the Symbology selected from the pull-down
list.
If 'All' is selected, the prefix is added for any symbology that has not been specifically
configured.
To enable a suffix, check the Suffix checkbox and enter the desired string in the text box.
The default is disabled (unchecked) with a blank text string. When bar code data is processed,
the Suffix string is sent to the output buffer after the bar code data.
Because all stripping operations have already occurred, stripping settings do not affect the
suffix. The suffix is added to the output buffer for the Symbology selected from the pull-down
list.
If 'All' is selected, the suffix is added for any symbology that has not been specifically
configured.
