Overview of Output Format/Filtering
Output Format consists of a set of criteria expressed in Extraction and Insertion
serial or ESP menu commands that can be chained together to control the presenta-
tion of data that is transmitted from decoded bar code labels. If a label does not
meet the defined criteria, it is treated as a noread.
Note that Extraction and Insertion functions are independent of Ordered Output
criteria. The output format control can also work with all standard read modes such
as Matchcode, Multilabel etc.
Commands can be chained together in an array of as many as 100 steps and applied
to any label.

Note: Output Format Status must be enabled in order for any Output Format
commands to function.

Format. Extraction and/or Insertion commands must be defined
