ACK Character
This setting specifies an ASCII character or hex value to be used as the ACK character. 
ASCII characters or any hex value from 0 to 0xFF can be selected.
To set this feature:
1. Determine the desired character or value.
2. Use the 
ASCII Chart
 on the inside back cover of this manual to find the hex equivalent 
for the desired character/value.
3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming 
Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT ACK CHARACTER SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two alpha-numeric characters from the keypad in 
Appendix E, 
Keypad
, that represent the desired character/value in step 
1
 above. The second character 
will cause a two-beep indication.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming 
Mode.
This completes the procedure. See 
Table 8
 for some examples of how to set this feature.
