Chapter 2: Features, Functions, and Kits
This chapter describes the features, functions, and kits. Specification
and performance data on the 7870 unit and its major components is
also provided.
General Features and Functions
Bar Code Recognition
The 7870 can recognize and read a number of bar codes including:
UPC-A Code 39 (Code 3 of 9)
UPC-E Code 128
UPC-D (limited set) Interleaved 2 of 5
EAN-8/13 Add-On Codes
JAN-8/13
It is possible that in some situations, the 7870 may be able to read more
types of bar codes than the host terminal’s application program. In
such a case, either the application program must be upgraded to read
these bar codes or the 7870 must be told, using the Programming Tags
(BST0-2121-74), to ignore the particular bar code type.
