How to activate EAN128 barcode scanning in Pick-IT non-ASP (CAB)
Introduction
Before you are able to use EAN128 bar codes, some settings have to be activated. This must be done both on the terminal and in the Pick-IT
hand terminal settings. This document describes the steps to take to activate
EAN128 bar code decoding in Pick-IT non-ASP version. For Pick-IT ASP please
refer to
How to activate EAN128 barcode scanning in Pick-IT ASP.
Description
The configuration of EAN128 for Pick-IT non-ASP consists of the following
steps:
- configuring the hand terminal
- configuring Pick-IT on the hand terminal (editing the file CONFIG.DAT)
- configuring Pick-IT hand terminal settings
Configuring Terminals
First the hand terminal has to add prefix, suffix and a
separator sign to the scanned bar codes. This configuration differs per
model:
Configuring Pick-IT on the hand terminal
Open the file CONFIG.DAT on the hand terminal in the folder \Program
Files\Pickit, see document
How do I access Pick-IT files on the terminal.
Change the following settings in this file:
| ScannerUsePrefixSuffix |
TRUE |
|
| ScannerPrefix |
( |
or another prefix sign, but the same as
used in the terminal configuration |
| ScannerSuffix |
) |
or another suffix sign, but the same as
used in the terminal configuration |
| ScannerGroupSeparator |
$ |
this setting was introduced in
later versions of Pick-IT CAB, if this setting is missing
then the default separator sign is already '$' and cannot be configured |
| BarcodeType |
EAN128 |
|
After changing, do not forget to copy the file CONFIG.DAT to the
folder \Application (Symbol/Motorola devices) or \System (LXE
devices) to save this configuration for a next cold boot sequence.
Pick-IT scanner settings per Pick-IT functionality
The setting "Use EAN128" has to be enabled for
every Pick-IT functionality where you want to use EAN128 scanning, in menu
System/Pick-IT/Scanners, for example System/Pick-IT/Scanners/Sales Order
fulfillment settings.
Activating changed settings
When using RF (wireless communication), these settings are read by Pick-IT on
the hand terminals when restarting Pick-IT. When using batch communication
(cradle), you will have to export the settings to each hand terminal in
System/Pick-IT/Scanners/Send scanner settings.
