122 Chapter 6: Running a print job VCode User Guide Parameter Initial counter value Increment Interval (plates) Description The number to start counting from. For example, if there is a constant with the value ABC followed by an initial counter value of 0001, the output is ABC0001, ABC0002...ABC0010. If you enter 000001 for the initial counter value, the output is ABC000001, ABC000002...ABC000010. The amount by which the initial value increases according to the interval. How many plates must be processed before the initial counter value is increased. To generate the following sequence, use a combination of Prefix (DDR-), Initial counter value (0000151), and Suffix (-01). Also use an Increment of 1 and a Base of 10: DDR-0000151-01, DDR-0000152-01, DDR-0000153-01... 6. Click in the white space to apply these changes. PlateTag immediately recognizes the addition of the new counter. The counter’s name can now be added to the Label Field Data group box of the Label Editor page of VCode Diagnostics.

Chapter 6: Running a print job VCode User Guide 123 Cloning a bar code Introduction If your company is changing the bar code symbology it uses on plate labels, you will need a way to re-label plates that are already labelled. The re-labelled bar codes would have to carry the same information but use the new symbology. You can use bar code cloning for this. The optional bar code reader is required for cloning, and it must be set up to decode the bar code format that you want to read. How it works In simple terms, the cloning process works as follows: 1. The bar code on the existing label is read by the bar code reader. 2. The bar code information in the label is decoded to text. 3. The text is copied to the bar code field that will be printed on the new label. 4. The text is encoded using the new symbology. 5. The new label is printed, either on a different side of the plate or the same side of the plate over the top of the existing label. Before you start This procedure assumes that PlateTag is already open. Procedure To clone a bar code: 1. In PlateTag, click the Schemas tab at the bottom of the page. 2. Click the Clones tab. 3. Create a new clone: a. Click Add new clone. b. In the Variable name column, click once in the New Clone #x field. c. Click a second time to make it editable and type a name for the clone. d. Click once in the Side to clone bar code from column. e. Click a second time to open a list box and select the side of the plate that has the bar code to be read.
