6.33.2.3 Data Handling
This option allows you to choose the code page your Ikôn will use to display data – Default
Local ASCII or ISO-8859-1 Latin 1.
Codepage:
Tapping on this option displays a window in which you can define the code page your Ikôn
will use.
If you choose Default Local ASCII, the code page of the local OS is used. For example, if
the local OS uses double-byte Chinese characters, choosing this option will filter data
through the local ASCII of that OS and display it accurately, in this example, using double-
byte characters.
If you choose ISO-8859-1 Latin 1, data will be displayed according to the character mapping
of this Latin 1 code page, ignoring the local OS code page.
6.33.3 Translations Tab
The Translations tab allows you to define up to 10 cases, each consisting of up to 10 rules
in sequential order. Only one case will be applied to a bar code and a case will only be
applied if all rules specified in the case are successful – if a rule within a case fails, the entire
case fails.
