2. Data format editing steps

Select the data format editing function: In the settings or configuration menu of the barcode scanner, find and select "Data Format Editing" or similar function options.

Set the data format: Select the data format type: Select the appropriate data format type according to your needs, such as fixed text, variable text, date format, etc.

Set the data length: Specify the length of the scanned data, which can be fixed length or variable length.

Add prefixes and suffixes: Add prefixes or suffixes to the scan results for data interaction with other systems.

Set delimiters: Specify the characters or strings used to separate data, such as commas, spaces, etc.

Set data editing commands: Set data editing commands according to your needs, such as converting uppercase and lowercase letters, removing spaces, etc.

Save and test: After completing the data format setting, save the configuration and test to ensure that the scanning device can output formatted data as expected.

3. Notes and suggestions

Understand the requirements: Before editing the data format, you need to fully understand the requirements of the application scenario, including the type, length, format, etc. of the data.

Choose the right device: Make sure that the selected barcode scanner supports the data format editing function and has the required performance and reliability.

Backup configuration: Before editing the data format, it is recommended to back up the original configuration of the device so that it can be restored when needed.

Test verification: After completing the data format setting, be sure to perform sufficient test verification to ensure that the scanning device can correctly output the formatted data.

4. Examples of common data format editing requirements

Fixed text output: Convert the scan results to a fixed text format, such as converting the scan results of the EAN-13 barcode into a 13-digit text output.

Date format conversion: Convert the scanned date data to a specific date format, such as YYYY-MM-DD or MM/DD/YYYY, etc.

Add prefixes and suffixes: Add specific prefixes or suffixes to the scan results to interact with other systems or applications.

Through the above steps and precautions, users can easily implement the data format editing function of the XTIOT barcode scanner to meet the needs of different application scenarios.
