How to Set Prefix and Suffix on the OCBS-W600 Wireless Barcode Scanner
Wireless barcode scanners are commonly used in supermarkets, warehouses, logistics, and retail environments. Depending on specific application needs, users often require the ability to add a prefix or suffix to the scanned data. If you're using the OCBS-W600 wireless barcode scanner from OCOM, you can easily configure it to automatically add a prefix or suffix to the data it reads.
Adding a Prefix:
Step 1: Scan the "Add Prefix" setup code. This action will clear any previously set prefix.
Step 2: Scan the character code for the prefix you want to add (up to 32 characters).
For example, if you want to add the prefix "M", simply scan the character code for "M".
Adding a Suffix:
Step 1: Scan the "Add Suffix" setup code. This will clear any existing suffix.
Step 2: Scan the character code for the suffix you wish to include (again, up to 32 characters).
For instance, to add the suffix "%", scan the corresponding character code for "%".
Once both the prefix and suffix are set, test the scanner by scanning a barcode. The output should now include both the prefix and suffix. For example, if the original scanned data is "TEST", after adding the prefix "M" and the suffix "%", the result will be "MTEST%".
This feature is especially useful in systems that require standardized data formats, such as inventory management, point-of-sale systems, or automated data entry processes. It ensures that the data received by your system is consistent and structured, making it easier to process and integrate with other software or databases.
Make sure to follow the steps carefully, and always verify the settings by scanning a test barcode. If you need to change the prefix or suffix later, simply repeat the process with the new desired characters.
