4.4 Modos de subida de datos

O escáner admite dous modos de carga de datos:

• Modo de carga instantánea: Scanned barcodes are immediately transmitted to the connected host device.
• Modo de almacenamento: Scanned barcodes are stored in the scanner's internal memory. Data can be uploaded later as a batch. This is useful for inventory tasks where real-time connection is not always available.

• Sufixo: Characters added after the scanned barcode data. Common suffixes include Tab or Enter for automatic field progression.

Configuration of prefixes and suffixes is done by scanning specific programming barcodes found in the comprehensive user manual.

4.6 Date & Time as Prefix or Suffix

The scanner can embed the current date and time with scanned data, either as a prefix or a suffix. This is useful for timestamping inventory or tracking.

To set the date and time, you may need to scan specific configuration barcodes or use a dedicated tool provided by Tera support, as noted in some user feedback.
