To program each data formatting rule: • Start the Rule. Scan Begin New Rule on page 14-6. • Specify Criteria. Scan the bar codes for all pertinent criteria. Criteria can include code type (e.g., Code 128), code length, or data that contains a specific character string (e.g., the digits "129"). See Criteria on page 14-9. • Specify Actions. Scan all actions related to, or affecting, these criteria. The actions of a rule specify how to format the data for transmission. See Actions on page 14-20. • Save the Rule. Scan the Save Rule on page 14-6. This places the rule in the top position in the rule buffer. • Use the following special-purpose bar codes to correct errors that occur during this process: Erase Criteria and Start Again, Erase Actions and Start Again, Erase Previously Saved Rule, etc. Use the Erase bar codes on page 14-7 to erase criteria, actions, and entire rules.

The distribution center also has products that carry UPC bar codes, placed there by the manufacturer. The Code 128 bar codes have the following format: MMMMMPPPPPDD Where: M = Manufacturer ID P = Part Number D = Destination Code The distribution center uses a PC with dedicated control characters for manufacturer ID , part number , and destination code . At this center the UPC data is treated as manufacturer ID code. The following rules must be entered: When scanning data of code type Code 128, send the next 5 characters, send the manufacturer ID key , send the next 5 characters, send the part number key , send the next 2 characters, send the destination code key . When scanning data of code type UPC/EAN, send all data, send the manufacturer ID key . To enter these rules, see the following steps:

Using ADF Bar Codes

When programming a rule, make sure the rule is logically correct. Plan ahead before you start scanning.

To program each data formatting rule:

•

Start the Rule

Scan

Begin New Rule on page 14-6

•

Specify Criteria

. Scan the bar codes for all pertinent criteria. Criteria can include code type (e.g., Code 128),

code length, or data that contains a specific character string (e.g., the digits “129”). See

Criteria on page

14-9

•

Specify Actions

. Scan all actions related to, or affecting, these criteria. The actions of a rule specify how to

format the data for transmission. See

Actions on page 14-20

•

Save the Rule

. Scan the

Save Rule on page 14-6

. This places the rule in the top position in the rule buffer.

•

Use the following special-purpose bar codes to correct errors that occur during this process:

Erase Criteria

and Start Again

Erase Actions and Start Again

Erase Previously Saved Rule

, etc.

Use the Erase bar codes on

page 14-7

to erase criteria, actions, and entire rules.

Beeper Definitions on page 2-2

help guide you through the programming steps.

ADF Bar Code Menu Example

This section provides an example of how to enter and use ADF rules for scan data.

An auto parts distribution center wants to encode manufacturer ID, part number, and destination code into their

own Code 128 bar codes. The distribution center also has products that carry UPC bar codes, placed there by the

manufacturer. The Code 128 bar codes have the following format:

MMMMMPPPPPDD

Where:

M = Manufacturer ID

P = Part Number

D = Destination Code

The distribution center uses a PC with dedicated control characters for manufacturer ID <CTRL M>, part number

<CTRL P>, and destination code <CTRL D>. At this center the UPC data is treated as manufacturer ID code.

The following rules must be entered:

When scanning data of code type Code 128, send the next 5 characters, send the manufacturer ID key <CTRL

M>, send the next 5 characters, send the part number key <CTRL P>, send the next 2 characters, send the

destination code key <CTRL D>.

When scanning data of code type UPC/EAN, send all data, send the manufacturer ID key <CTRL M>.

To enter these rules, see the following steps:
