other acceptable value is 1, meaning the
data are protected. The PPI1 absorbs
this number and does not protect the
data.

Thisis a reserved flag. The PPI1 absorbs

Software Migration Tools (SMT)There are SMTs for six separate end-use applications supp orting
both PGL and PPI1 datastreams for a total of 12 tools. Each tool
intercepts bar code data in a host datastream and copies the data
to an RFID tag (embedded in a smart label) according to a set of
rules as defined below. SMTs assume that only one bar code of the
type being processedis present. In the event that there is more
than one of a given type of barcode present, only the first is
processed.
Bar code information encoded as dynamic data is supporte d. To
avoid ambiguity, where bar code data is provided in the form of
dynamic data, the RFID tag will be encoded with only the co ntents
of the first variable bar code field. It will be your resp onsibility to
ensure that the first variable bar code is the desired bar code.

•GTIN: According to Uniform Code Council standards th ere are
two permissible bar codes on standard case labels: UCC-128
and Interleaved Two of Five (ITF14). These are the typical bar
code carriers for the GTIN (Global Trade Identification
Number). This tool copies data from either an ITF14, or from a
UCC-128 barcode with an Application Identifier of 01 (which
indicates an SCC-14) to an RFID tag. If barcode checksum
data is included in your datastream, it will be encoded onto the
tag. If your datastream requests the printer to calculate the bar
code checksum, it will not be encoded onto the tag. In the case
of the UCC bar code, the (01) application identifier is not written
to the tag. Data written to the RFID tag is right justified and zero
padded.
