HandscannerBCS 3600ex series 6 ConfigurationSubject to technical modificationsRevision A / 04/2019 53 / 1066.4.9 Advanced Data Formatting (ADF)Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) - Scan one bar code per trigger pullAdvanced Data Formatting (ADF) is a means of customizing data from before transmission to thehost device. Use ADF to edit scan data to suit your host's requirements. With ADF you scan one barcode per trigger pull. ADF is programmed using 123Scan.For an ADF tutorial and a 123Scan programming example, go to the 123Scan section of our How ToVideos:http://www.zebra.com/ScannerHowToVideosFor additional information, refer to the “Advanced Data Formatting” Programmer Guide.“Advanced Data Formatting“ programmer Guide, p/n 72E-69680-xx - provides information on ADF, ameans of customizing data before transmission to a host.6.4.10 Multicode Data Formatting (MDF)Multicode Data Formatting (MDF) - Scan many bar codes in one trigger pullMulticode Data Formatting (MDF) enables a 2D imaging scanner to scan all bar codes on a label witha single trigger pull, and then modify and transmit the data to meet host application requirements.MDF supports programming up to nine unique labels into one scanner. MDF also supports scanningmultiple bar codes on opposite sides of a box by holding the trigger.Programming options include:- Output all or specific bar codes- Control the bar code output sequence- Apply unique multicode data formatting (MDF) to each output bar code- Discard scanned data if all required bar codes are not presentFor an MDF tutorial and a 123Scan programming example, go to the 123Scan section of our How ToVideos:http://www.zebra.com/ScannerHowToVideosFor more information, refer to the ”Multicode Data Formatting and Preferred Symbol” User Guide.”Multicode Data Formatting and Preferred Symbol”, p/n MN-002895-xx - provides information on multicode, data formatting, rules and preferred symbol prioritization.Programming OptionsUsing 123Scan, programming an MDF Group is similar to setting an ADF rule. MDF programming issaved in the 123Scan configuration file.MDF can be deployed to a fleet of 2D imaging scanners using the Scanner Management Service(SMS) through a traditional SMS package.
