ASCII barcode reader
To enter text such as labels, numbers, and equations with a barcode reader, connect the barcode reader
to the mini DIN connector with an adapter (part No. 104286). The instrument buttons remain functional.
See section 3.7 on how to connect a mini DIN connector.
To enter labels, the instrument’s cursor must be on the text to be changed (on the right side of the
display) before you scan in the new text from the barcode. Press Enter to accept the changes, or press
Menu to reject the changes.
The barcode reader may also be used on the instrument trend screens to enter text data that will be
stored as a time stamped event. The ASCII data is split up into three fields:
Description 16 characters
Tag 7 characters
State 6 characters
The first 16 characters will go into the description field. The next 7 into the tag field and so on.
This data will be time stamped and stored in the event file (.LNE) on the floppy disk.
Barcode Reader Recommendation
The barcode reader should output ASCII keyboard data.
The reader should be capable of Code 39 barcode input.
The connector should be able to connect to the Keyboard connector located under the door.
