CODE 39: Laser/CCD Redundancy: OFF

<>

Use this option to control the Laser/CCD redundancy for CODE 39 bar codes. With this option enabled, a CODE 39 bar code
must be read twice in a row when using a Laser or CCD device, to be considered a good read. This option provides additional
security when scanning poorly printed or damaged CODE 39 bar codes.





Note: Using this option does not require you to physically read the same bar code twice to get a good read. The scanner
continuously sweeps across the bar code the number of times necessary when this mode is enabled, therefore requiring no
additional operator intervention.


Select Option Group: UPC/EAN/JAN GROUP
Select this option group to modify the individual settings for the UPC/EAN/JAN decoders. Once you have selected this option
group, you may cursor down to configure each of the following decoder options.

options is ON.

UPC/EAN/JAN: Expand UPC-E To UPC-A: OFF

<>



Use this option to expand UPC-E bar codes into their UPC-A equivalents. UPC-E is an eight digit variation of the UPC
symbology. The first digit in a UPC-E represents the number system, the last digit indicates the check digit, and the next to the
last digit is the type of compression used or compression character. The UPC-E bar code can be expanded into a UPC-A bar
code by using the Expansion Table in Appendix-A, see page 36.

UPC/EAN/JAN: Expand UPC-A To EAN-13/JAN-13: OFF

<>



UPC-A is a subset of the EAN-13 bar code, a UPC-A bar code is the same as an EAN-13 bar code with the first character set to
0. Enabling this option will insert a leading 0 at the beginning of all UPC-A bar codes.

UPC/EAN/JAN: Send UPC-A Number System Char: ON

Use this option to enable or disable the transmission of the UPC-A number system character. The number system character is
the first character in the UPC-A bar code.

set to ON the check digit is transmitted to the computer. In an EAN-13/JAN-13 bar code the check digit is the thirteenth
character, in an EAN-8/JAN-8 the check digit is the eighth character in the bar code.
