Chapter 3-Label Design Input Data to Bar Code Fields The input data to a bar code field is given using a PRBAR instruction. You can add the same types of data to a bar code field as to a text field, provided the type of data (numeric/alphanumeric), number of characters, etc. comply with the bar code specification. You can combine different types of data in a single PRBAR instruction. The different parts are placed adjacently by means of separating semicolons (;). Note that alphanumeric input must be enclosed by quotation marks, whereas numeric input must not. PRBAR | PB [;...] Examples: PB 71543;VAR5$ ↵ PB "Intermec" ↵ PB DATE$;TIME$ ↵ Input Data to Image Fields An image can be selected either by name in plain text (for example "GLOBE.1"), or in the form of a variable (for example VAR1$), also see Chapter 3.5. Note that plain text input must be enclosed by quotation marks. PRIMAGE | PM "" Examples: PM VAR5$ ↵ PM "LOGOTYPE.2" ↵ Input Data from Counters Using a COUNT& instruction, various counters can be created, see Chapter 5.6. You can read the present value of a counter and use it as input data by including a reference to the counter in the PRTXT, PRBOX, or PRBAR instructions in the form of a variable. CNT$ is the number is assigned to the counter in the COUNT& instruction. Example: PT "Label number: ";CNT1$ ↵ PB CNT2$ ↵ 42 Intermec Direct Protocol v.8.60-Programmer's Reference Manual
