Using DataMatch

Understanding the DataMatch Feature

You can load a database into your Quick Check 600/800 Verifier. Then, when you scan a bar code symbol, you can review not only the scan results, but also any information contained in the database about that scanned symbol. The additional information may be, for example, the name of the product.

You can use the DataMatch feature in any of these ways:

•Display (append) the database information to the decoded data so both types of information appear on the first line of the verifier display.

•Replace the first line of the verifier display with the database information.

•Verify that the symbol is in the database.

If the verifier was set to use DataMatch before it was turned off, the term DataMatch appears on the last line of the opening display when you turn on the unit.
