An apparatus is provided that includes a bar code emulator for translating an RF carrier signal modulated, preferably, using the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) symbology into a signal suitably formatted for input to a standard bar code decoder. A sensor interface is included in the bar code emulator for demodulating the RF signal. A control interface is included for specifying the format of the resulting signals. A processor translates the ASCII symbols according to the format specified at the control interface. The resulting signals are output on a decoder interface that communicates with the standard bar code decoder.
