Scan Options
Redundancy:
This option requires two identical scans of a
bar code, one right af ter another, before the hand-held com-
puter accepts the scan as valid.
Mod 10 Check
: When you select this option, a check digit
is added at the end of the bar code after a good read. This is
a variation of the modulus 10 formula and is used infre-
quently.
For additional information on Mod10, refer to the book

Concatenate
: Each bar code read is added to the end of
the previous bar code read until the computer meets a
condition that forces t ransmission to the host.
When this option is OFF, each bar code read is placed at the
beginning of the current input field. After a bar code is
placed in a field, any subsequent read replaces the first
read.
BC Type Char:
This option adds a character associated
with the bar code type at the beginning of the scanned bar
code.
Stream Scan:
If the scanned bar code is too big for the
input field, the overflow information appears in the next
field. This continues until the entire bar code is entered.
