Intermec 5055 Reference Guide

You want to set a preamble that includes quotation marks. Enter the preamble by
scanning this full ASCII bar code label:

Set Preamble to “B”

*/D/KAD/B/B/BB/B/B/B*

*$+AD"""B"""*

You must enclose the data within quotation marks and precede each quotation mark
with another quotation mark so that the quotation marks are not treated as the end of the
data.

 Example:

im_command (“$+ADB”,5);

will set the preamble to B.

SOM is the first character in a message sent to or received from the host computer
through the 5055’s serial port. SOM cannot equal the same value that is set for EOM.
You cannot set SOM to any of these values:

• AFF (ACK)

• REQ (ENQ)

• DLE

• SEL

• NEG (NAK)

• XOFF

• Poll

• XON

• RES (EOT)

 Before you can enable SOM, you must configure the EOM command.

PEdata

An acceptable value for data is any ASCII character. No data will disable SOM.

\x02 (hexadecimal value for STX)

To disable SOM, scan this bar code:

Disable SOM
