How to add a Suffix to scanned data?
Resolution / Answer
Process: Enable Feature → Add Content → Enter HEX Values → Activate
Enable Output
Enable prefix and suffix functionality as needed.
⚠️ Prefixes/suffixes won't work without this step!
Add Prefix/Suffix Content
Enable prefixes and suffixes as needed. If both are required, configure the prefix first, then proceed to the suffix.
Enter HEX Values
Look up the ASCII table to find the character you need to add, then obtain its first two hexadecimal digits.
Example: A=41H, B=42H
Scan Digit Barcodes
The complete HEX code can only be obtained after sequentially scanning.
Example: A=41H, B=42H
Scan HEX: 4 and HEX: 1, then immediately scan HEX: 4 and HEX: 2. This will add the prefix/suffix AB.
Remove prefix/suffix
Scan the barcode below to complete setup as needed.
