EAN•UCC Composite Codes

Linear codes are combined with a unique 2D composite

component to form a new class called EAN•UCC Composite
symbology. EAN•UCC Composite symbologies allow for the

co-existence of symbologies already in use.

UPC/EAN Version

Scan the UPC/EAN Version On bar code to decode EAN•UCC

Composite symbols that have a UPC or EAN linear component.

(This does not affect EAN•UCC Composite symbols with a

UCC/EAN-128 or GS1 DataBar linear component.)

Message Length

Scan the bar codes below to change the message length. Minimum

and

Maximum lengths = 1-2435. Minimum Default = 1, Maximum

Default = 2435

Emulation

The imager can automatically format the output from any
EAN•UCC data carrier to emulate what would be encoded in an

equivalent UCC/EAN-128 or GS1 DataBar and Composite symbol.
EAN•UCC data carriers include UPC-A and UPC-E, EAN-13

and EAN-8, ITF-14, UCC/EAN-128, and EAN•UCC GS1 DataBar

and Composites. Data from 2D symbols such as Aztec Code, Data

Matrix, or QR Code, which encode a leading FNC1, also invoke
EAN•UCC emulation. If UCC/EAN-128 Emulation is selected, the
AIM Symbology Identifier is reported as “]C1”. If GS1 DataBar

Emulation is selected, the AIM Symbology Identifier is reported as
“]e0.” Any application that accepts EAN•UCC data can be

simplified since it only needs to recognize one data carrier type.
