this parameter. The default is None and scanning a valid Hex tag ends the input for this parameter option.
Extend UPC-A to EAN-13
The Extend UPC-A to EAN-13 parameter determines whether to pad the tag data, changing 12-digit UPC tags to 13-Character EAN tags. The program does this by putting a zero (0) at the front of the tag data. Scan the Hex 0 tag to disable this option or the Hex 1 tag to enable it. The default is Disable and scanning a valid Hex tag ends the input for this parameter option.
Extend UPC-E to UPC-A
The Extend UPC-E to UPC-A parameter determines whether to pad the tag data, changing 6-digit truncated UPC tags to 12-Character UPC-A tags. Scan the Hex 0 tag to disable this option or the Hex 1 tag to enable it. The default is Disable and scanning a valid Hex tag ends the input for this parameter option.
Periodic Codes
The Periodical Codes parameter controls the processing of Periodical Codes. Disable Periodical Codes by scanning the Hex 0 tag and enable them by scanning the Hex 1 tag. The default is to disable Periodical Codes.
If you choose to disable Periodical Codes, there are no other entries allowed for this parameter. Scanning the Hex 0 tag also causes the scanner/scale to go back to the Base Programming State. However, if you enable Periodical Codes, you must also program the Periodical Code Extension and Send Data parameters.
Note: Use of optional add-on bar codes may require additional programming. See Early Beep Disable and Terminal Coupon Interface Parameters in the Special Programming section of this chapter.
Periodic Code Extension
The Periodical Code Extension parameter has three selections: 2-digit extension only, 5-digit extension only, and either 2- or 5-digit extensions. Scan the Hex 0 tag for 2-digit extension only, the Hex 1 tag for 5-digit extension only, or the Hex 2 tag for both the 2- and 5-digit
