Use setting 1 and 2 to enable or disable the UPC-E or EAN-8 first digit.

Use setting 3 and 4 to enable or disable the UPC-E or EAN-8 check digit. The check digit is the last character

and is based upon a calculation performed on the other characters.

Use setting 5 to select UPC-E0 compressed or expanded. When set to ON (the default setting) UPC-E1 codes

are transmitted as is, when set to OFF UPC-E1 codes are transmitted with inserted zeros to make them the
same length as a UPC-A bar code. An NSC of 0 is assumed.

Use setting 6 to enable the reading of UPC-E1 bar codes. Do not enable UPC-E1 if you plan on reading EAN-

13 bar codes. You may experience partial reads when reading ENA-13.

If you prefer to transmit UPC-E bar codes in a 6-digit format while EAN-8 is transmitted in its original 8-digit

format, set option 7 to ON.

UCC/EAN-128 is a subset of Code 128 that follows certain specifications regarding character content, length

and check digits. Enabling UCC/EAN-128 (2) causes the RF Terminal to look for a Code 128 bar code that
begins with the Code 128 F1 (Function 1) character. See Appendix H: Code 128 for more details.

CLSI is a form of Codabar often used by libraries.

Setting 3 will transmit the Codabar start and stop characters with the bar code data to your computer. If you are

varying the start and stop characters to differentiate between different labels, transmitting the start and stop can be
helpful. See Appendix G; Codabar for more information.

Setting 2 requires that the last digit in your bar code conform to the specifications for the 2 of 5 check digit

calculation. See Appendix I; 2 of 5 Code for more information.

Transmission of the check digit (3) requires the use of setting 2 and will transmit the check digit along with the bar

code data to the computer.
