Equation to Determining Potential Number of Stored
Barcodes
The number of barcodes that can be stored in the KDC memory depends on the size of the barcodes.
Example: If only UPCA barcodes are scanned and the check digit is not transmitted, then each barcode
takes up 11 (barcode data) + 2 (added bytes) + 2 (length and type) + 4 (time stamp) = 19 bytes. The
maximum number of UPCA barcodes that can be saved is 81,920/19 =4,311.
If different length barcodes are mixed, then you cannot compute the maximum number of barcodes that can
be stored.

Data Buffer Full

When the data buffer is full, the KDC displays a message, Buffer Full, ignoring any command to scan
barcodes. You must reset the data buffer to continue data collection
