Barcode Symbologies 

Scanning nicely printed barcode labels is simple, and most decoders can 
easily read well-printed labels.  But because there are so many poorly 
printed barcode labels in the real world, the LongReach scanner has 
been designed to handle printing tolerances of up to ± 200% to help it 
to read virtually any barcode label, even if it’s badly printed. 

The ASP LongReach scanner auto-discriminates all popular and special 
barcode symbologies, including: 

• 

Standard Code 39, Full ASCII Code 39, Code 32, HIBC 

• 

Code 93, Code 11, Codabar, NW-7 

• 

Code 128 A/B/C sets, UCC/EAN 128 

• 

Product Codes (UPC/EAN/JAN/CAN/APN) with addendum 

• 

Standard/Industrial/Matrix/Inverted/Compressed 2 of 5 

• 

MSI/Plessey, UK/Plessey, IBM Delta, BCD, ITF 

• 

Interleaved 2 of 5, Interleaved 2 of 5 S Code, IATA 

Host Interfaces 

The ASP LongReach scanner has five standard interface types 
built-in - PC Keyboard Wedge, Wand Emulation, Apple Macintosh, 
RS-232 Output and RS-232 Serial Wedge.  These interfaces are 
selected via special setup barcodes, and connect via plug-in adaptor 
cables. 

One adaptor cable is supplied with each ASP LongReach scanner, 
additional adaptor cables are available as optional extras.  Adaptor 
cables can be removed by pushing the end of a paper clip into the hole 
near the LongReach scanner end of the adaptor, and then carefully 
pulling the connector out. 

The standard termination character for the LongReach scanner is a 
single carriage return.  To remove this terminator, or to change it back 
to a single carriage return, please use the setup barcodes on page 18.  
Other termination characters are also available - please contact ASP or 
your dealer with your requirements.
