UPC E1
UPC E1 is no longer supported by theUPC specification because of a similarity
to EAN 13. This decoder can be programmed to read UPC E1 as long as EAN
13 is turned off. Default = Off.
UPC D can encode variableĆlength messages, but is rarely used and is not
supported by this decoder.
Programming Tip: If a symbology won't be used, we recommend turning it off
to minimize the chance of a misread.
The decoder always verifies the check digit and normally will transmit it. If you
don't want the check digit transmitted,a programming option is provided to turn
transmission off. Default = Transmit.
The number system digit of a UPC symbol is normally transmitted, though the
reader can be programmed to suppress it. Default = Transmit.
The decoder can expand a UPC E message into the 12 character UPC A
message format if desired. Default = Don't Expand.
