UPC/EAN Shared Settings
Conv. UPC-E1 To UPC-A
This parameter converts UPC-E1 (zero suppressed) decoded data to UPC-A format
before transmission. After conversion, data follows UPC-A format and is affected
by UPC-A programming selections (e.g., Preamble, Check Digit).
Prefix/Suffix
See "Prefix/Suffix" beginning on page 157.
5.10.3.9 UPC/EAN Shared Settings
The parameters you set here are a shared across all available UPC and EAN
bar codes.
Enable Bookland EAN
Setting this parameter to on allows your scanner to recognize Bookland EAN
bar codes.
Supplementals
'Supplementals" are additionally appended characters (2 or 5).
Double-tapping this parameter displays a list of options. If Ignore is chosen,
UPC/EAN is decoded and the supplemental characters are ignored. If Decode is
chosen, UPC/EAN symbols are decoded with supplementals. Autodiscriminate
works in conjunction with the Supp. Redundancy parameter.
Supp. Redundancy
With "Autodiscriminate" selected in the "Supplementals" parameter, "Supp.
Redundancy" adjusts the number of times a symbol without supplementals is
decoded before transmission.
When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog is displayed in which you can enter
a value between 2 and 20. A value of 5 or above is recommended when
Autodiscriminate is selected and you are decoding a mix of UPC/EAN symbols with
and without supplementals.
