Decode UPC/EAN/JAN Supplementals
Parameter # 10h
Supplementals are bar codes appended according to specific format conventions (e.g., UPC A+2, UPC E+2, EAN 13+2). Six options are
available.
•If Decode UPC/EAN/JAN Only With Supplementals is selected, UPC/EAN/JAN symbols without supplementals are not
decoded.
•If Ignore Supplementals is selected, and the digital scanner is presented with a UPC/EAN/JAN with a
supplemental, the UPC/EAN/JAN is decoded and the supplemental bar code is ignored.
•An Autodiscriminate Option is also available. If this option is selected, choose an appropriate UPC/EAN/JAN
Supplemental Redundancy value from the next page. A value of 5 or more is recommended.
• Enable 378/379 Supplemental Mode to delay only EAN-13/JAN-13 bar codes starting with a ‘378’ or ‘379’ prefix by the
supplemental search process. All other UPC/EAN/JAN bar codes are exempt from the search and are reported instantly upon
decode.
• Select Enable 978 Supplemental Mode to delay only EAN-13/JAN-13 bar codes starting with a ‘978’ prefix by the
supplemental search process. All other UPC/EAN/JAN bar codes are exempt from the search and are reported instantly upon
decode.
• Select Enable Smart Supplemental Mode to delay only EAN-13/JAN-13 bar codes starting with a ‘378’, ‘379’, or ‘978’
prefix by the supplemental search process. All other UPC/EAN/JAN bar codes are exempt from the search and are reported
instantly upon decode.
