& S ARCODE PTIONS 10.2 Code Options (KDC20/100/200/250/270L/270D/410/411/415/470L/470D) The KDC supports the following barcode options: Transmission of start and stop characters ⚫ Reverse direction ⚫ Symbology conversion ⚫ Verification of optional check character ⚫ Transmission of check digit ⚫ Transmission of Start and Stop Characters ⚫...
& S ARCODE PTIONS Verification of Optional “Check Digit” Code39 and Interleave 2 of 5 have an optional check digit, which, by default, is not verified. Changing the option VerifyCheckDigit to true may enable their verification, or the user may enable the verification for individual symbologies.
& S ARCODE PTIONS Resolution of Inconsistencies Three types of inconsistencies could arise in the assignment of symbology options. The decoder has pre-defined strategies to resolve these inconsistencies: If UPCE_as_EAN13 is true, then UPCE_as_UPCA is ignored. If symbology conversion is selected but the target symbology is not enabled, then the decoder still outputs the symbol in the target symbology.
& S ARCODE PTIONS 10.3 Miscellaneous Barcode Information Height of a Linear Barcode Industry standards suggest a height of either 6.5mm or 15% of the symbol length, whichever is greater. Symbols of less than recommended heights may cause recognition problems. Check Characters Yes, we recommend the use of check-characters in barcodes.
& S ARCODE PTIONS Data Buffer Full When the data buffer is full, the KDC displays a message, Buffer Full, ignoring any command to scan barcodes. The user must reset the data buffer to continue data collection.
