Concatenation
Codabar supports symbol concatenation. When you Allow concatenation, the
reader will look for a Codabar symbol having a “D” start character, adjacent to
a symbol having a “D” stop character. In this case the two messages are
concatenated into one with the “D” characters omitted.
Select Require to prevent the reader from decoding a lone Codabar symbol.

Programming Tip: If a symbology will not be used, we recommend turning it
off to minimize the chance of a misread.
