Trioptic Code

Note: If you are going to scan Code 32 Pharmaceutical codes (page 6-6), Trioptic Code must be off.

Trioptic Code is used for labeling magnetic storage media.

Trioptic Code Redundancy

If you are encountering errors when reading Trioptic bar codes, you may want to adjust the redundancy count. Redundancy adjusts the number of times a bar code is decoded before transmission, which may reduce the number of errors. Note that the higher the redundancy count, the longer it will take to decode the bar code. To adjust the redundancy, scan the Trioptic Code Redundancy bar code below, then scan a redundancy count between 0 and 10 on the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. Then scan the Save bar code. Default = 0.

GS1 Emulation

The scanner can automatically format the output from any GS1 data carrier to emulate what would be encoded in an equivalent GS1-128 or GS1 DataBar symbol. GS1 data carriers include UPC-A and UPC-E, EAN-13 and EAN-8, ITF-14, GS1-128, and GS1-128 DataBar and GS1 Composites. (Any application that accepts GS1 data can be simplified since it only needs to recognize one data carrier type.)

If GS1-128 Emulation is scanned, all retail codes (U.P.C., UPC-E, EAN8, EAN13) are expanded out to 16 digits. If the AIM ID is enabled, the value will be the GS1-128 AIM ID, ]C1 (see Symbology Charts on page A-1).

If GS1 DataBar Emulation is scanned, all retail codes (U.P.C., UPC-E, EAN8, EAN13) are expanded out to 16 digits. If the AIM ID is enabled, the value will be the GS1-DataBar AIM ID, ]em (see Symbology Charts on page A-1).

If GS1 Code Expansion Off is scanned, retail code expansion is disabled, and UPC-E expansion is controlled by the UPC-E0 Expand (page 6-31)setting. If the AIM ID is enabled, the value will be the GS1-128 AIM ID, ]C1 (see Symbology Charts on page A-1).

If EAN8 to EAN13 Conversion is scanned, all EAN8 bar codes are converted to EAN13 format.

Default = GS1 Emulation Off.
