UPC/EAN Enhancements

Description: This CE command enables or disables the decoding of Universal Product Code
(UPC)/European Article Numbering (EAN) symbology.
To define the UPC/EAN symbology, you set up to seven digits. The second digit now
has an added option for expanding zeroes in UPC-E, and the fourth digit now has
additional options for supplementals.
The supplemental portion of a UPC or EAN label is a weak symbology and can be
missed by the scanner for several reasons. In situations where supplementals are known
to be present, reading just the main symbol can be prevented until a valid supplemental
is found. When using a laser scanner, performance degradation is not noticeable.
The fifth, sixth, and seventh digits are optional. To set the sixth digit, you need to set the
fifth digit. To set the seventh digit, you need to set all seven digits.
