Symbology Options Overview

Enable All Symbologies — allows the scanner to auto-discriminate between all the symbologies in this list. Use this selection only if you must constantly read a wide variety of symbologies. Turn to the following pages for enabling additional symbology specific options.

Disable All Symbologies — disables all symbologies1. The scanner will only recognize the programming labels contained in this manual while you are in Programming Mode.

Enable UPC/EAN — tells the scanner to recognize UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN- 8, and EAN-13. If you enable this symbology, additional options for symbology expansion and reading add-ons are available. Allows selection of expansion and add-on options.

Enable Code 39 — selects Code 39 as an active symbology. Allows selection of Check Digit, Start/Stop and Single Digit options.

PharmaCode39 — is a symbology subset of Code 39. Enabling PharmaCode 39 selects this special Italian code as the active Code 39 symbology (superceding standard Code 39 features).

NOTE

Standard Code 39 must be enabled before PharmaCode can be enabled.

Enable Interleaved 2 of 5 — selects Interleaved 2 of 5 as an active symbology. Allows change of Check Digit or label format (fixed or variable length) options.

Enable Standard 2 of 5 — selects Standard 2 of 5 as an active symbology. Options for this symbology are similar to Inter- leaved 2 of 5 features.

1Code 128 is always active for the purpose of reading programming bar code labels; however, the scanner does not transmit data to the host when in Programming Mode. Scanning the DISABLE ALL SYMBOLOGIES label will disable Code 128 transmission to the host.
