If you disable multiple-read labels, the terminal processes the bar code 
label as a regular label and reads and decodes the space as data. A regular 
bar code label is executed as soon as you scan it. 
 
From Network: Not 
supported 
 
Keypad or Menu: Not 
supported 
 
Label Syntax: <Start 
Code><SP>data<Stop Code> 
where <SP> is the ASCII space character and data is the content of the 
label. 
 
Example: 
Multiple-Read Bar Code Label
 
* A* 
* A* 
After you scan a multiple-read bar code label, the accumulated data 
appears on the bottom line of the terminal screen. You can use the 
Accumulate mode commands, such as Backspace or Clear, to edit the data. 
Receive File 
There are three ways to receive files on the Trakker Antares terminals: 
•  Use the serial port to receive files on the terminal 
•  Use the serial port to receive and convert 7-bit ASCII files to 8-bit 
binary files on the terminal 
•  Use network communications to receive files on the RF or Ethernet 
terminal 
For help connecting the terminal to a host computer or the DCS 300, see 
your user’s manual. 
Receive File Through the Serial Port 
 
Description:  Receives a file from the host computer through the serial port and saves it 
on the terminal. 
On the host, you must transmit the file using a serial communications 
package (i.e., Windows 3.1 Terminal, Win95 HyperTerminal, Crosstalk, 
or ProComm) that supports one of these protocols: 
• XMODEM 
• XMODEM-1K 
• YMODEM 
XMODEM-1K is a version of XMODEM that supports 1024-byte blocks 
and the standard 128-byte XMODEM data blocks, which increases the 
throughput. YMODEM has the additional ability to transfer a file name 
with the file’s data, and it preserves the length of the file without padding. 
With YMODEM, you can also receive a batch of files on the terminal.
