Wasp Bar Code WPS100 用户手册

9-2

When you program a rule, make sure the rule is logically correct. Plan ahead before you 
start scanning.

To program each data formatting rule: 

•

Start the Rule. Scan the 

•

Criteria. Scan the bar codes for all pertinent criteria. Criteria can include code type 
(e.g., Code 128), code length, or data that contains a specific character string (e.g., 
the digits “129”). These options are described in 

•

Actions. Scan all actions related to, or affecting, these criteria. The actions of a 
rule specify how to format the data for transmission. These options are described 
in 

•

Save the Rule. Scan the 

 bar code on page 9-8. This places the rule in 

the “top” position in the rule buffer.

•

If you make errors during this process, some special-purpose bar codes may be 
useful: Erase Criteria and Start Again, Erase Actions and Start Again, Erase 
Previously Saved Rule, etc. 

Criteria, actions, and entire rules may be erased by scanning the appropriate bar code (see 
page 

 on page 2-2 help guide you through the programming steps.

This section provides an example of how ADF rules are entered and used for scan data. 

An auto parts distribution center wants to encode manufacturer ID, part number, and 
destination code into their own Code 128 bar codes. The distribution center also has 
products that carry UPC bar codes, placed there by the manufacturer. The Code 128 bar 
codes have the following format:

MMMMMPPPPPDD
Where:

M = Manufacturer ID
P = Part Number
D = Destination Code
