Serialized Data

Serialized Data

The
^SN
(Serialization Data) command allows the printer to index data fields by a selected increment or decrement value (that is, make the data fields increase or decrease by a specified value) each time a label is printed.
This can be performed on up to 100 to 150 fields in a given format and can be performed on both alphanumeric and bar code fields. A maximum of 12 of the right-most integers are subject to indexing. The first integer found when scanning from right to left starts the indexing portion of the data field.
If the alphanumeric field to be indexed ends with an alpha character, the data will be scanned, character-by-character, from right to left until a numeric character is encountered. Serialization will take place using the value of the first number found.
