register A register is a temporary holding place for up to 128 characters of
data. When you scan a bar code with a portable, the code is stored in
a register until it is verified and copied into a file for safekeeping. The
contents of the register are overwritten each time you scan a code.
rows The display screen of the PSC Falcon PT40 is divided horizontally into
rows, numbered 0 through 5. Refer to Default Language on page 29
for more information on the number of rows allowed, depending upon
the selected language.
Subroutine A subroutine contains nodes that execute program steps, very much
like a frame. The difference is that a subroutine is not connected to
other objects. It contains functions that can be referenced from any of
the program’s frames with a Call node.
template A template is a structure that you can define and impose on data. It
lets you alter the way in which collected data is stored. The most com-
mon use of a template is to take data from two or more registers and
tie them together in a single register.
Verify node A
Verify node checks data against specified requirements.
