LS 2106 Product Reference Guide

Decode UPC/EAN Supplementals

Supplementals are additionally appended characters (2 or 5) according to specific code format conventions (e.g., UPC A+2, UPC E+2, EAN 8+2). Three options are available.

If UPC/EAN with supplemental characters is selected, UPC/EAN symbols without supplemental characters are not decoded.

If UPC/EAN without supplemental characters is selected, and the LS 2106 is presented with a UPC/EAN plus supplemental symbol, the UPC/EAN is decoded and the supplemental characters ignored.

An autodiscriminate option is also available. If this option is selected, choose an appropriate Transmit UPC-A/UPC-E Check Digit value from the next page. A value of 5 or more is recommended.

Note: In order to minimize the risk of invalid data transmission, it is recommended that you select whether to read or ignore supplemental characters.
