Custom Identifiers - Honeywell MX9 Reference Manual

Custom Identifiers

Code IDs can be defined by the user. This allows processing parameters to be configured for bar codes that do not use the
standard AIM IDs, HHP IDs or Symbol IDs or for bar codes that have data embedded at the beginning of the data that acts like
a Code ID.
These are called custom Code IDs and are included in the Symbology drop down box in the Symbology dialog, unless Enable
Code ID is set to None. When the custom Code ID is found in a bar code, the configuration specified for the custom Code ID
is applied to the bar code data.
It is intended that custom code IDs are used to supplement the list of standard code IDs (if Enable Code ID is set to AIM,
Symbol or HHP), or to replace the list of standard code IDs (if Enable Code ID is set to Custom).
When Enable Code ID is set to None, custom code IDs are ignored.
Note: Custom symbologies will appear at the end of the list in the Symbology dialog, and are processed at the beginning of
the list in the scanner driver itself. This allows custom IDs based on actual code IDs to be processed before the code
ID itself.
Note: When Strip: Code ID is enabled, the entire custom Code ID string is stripped (i.e., treated as a Code ID).
The dialog box shown below allows the custom Code IDs to be configured. When incoming data is checked for a custom ID
code, the list is compared in the order displayed in this dialog box.
After adding, changing and removing items from the Custom IDs list, click the OK button to save changes and return to the
Barcode panel.
