Magnification Factor
The Magnification (Mag) Factor applies to the EAN/UPC symbologies. By setting
the size of the bar code symbols that you test, you define appropriate tolerances.
You can select a mag factor from the following values: 80%, 90%, 95%, 100%,
105%, 110%, 115%, 120%, 125%,130%, 140%, 150%, 160%, 180% or 200%.
The default is 100%.
Expand U.P.C./EO
The Yes setting for this parameter allows you to expand the compressed U.P.C.
code. When you expand the scan data, the digits are shifted to the left and +
appears on the display to indicate that additional data is available for your review.
The No setting for this parameter presents the data in zero suppression format.
Check Options
The check character, check digit and UserCheck are optional characters or digits
in some symbologies that are placed in a predetermined position in a symbol.
You can use them to validate that the correct data has been decoded.
Check characters in a symbol may be mandated by a bar code symbology
industry specification, by you, by both, or not at all. Refer to the relevant
industry’s publication for specific information on check characters.
• When you select Checked , the verifier looks for and checks the check
character or digit.
• When you select None , the verifier does not look for the check character or
digit. None is the default setting.
Selected symbologies offer additional options:
• Code 39 contains an optional Mod 43 check character.
• Interleaved 2 of 5 contains an optional 3-1-3-1 weighted check digit.
• MSI Code can contain a second check digit (UserCheck), either the Modulo
(Mod) 10 or Modulo (Mod) 11.
Modes Shown
This parameter allows you to have additional information appear on the display
and on the printout. This information includes special extra characters and
control characters within the encoded message. Having this extra information
displayed may help you analyze reading or printing problems. In Code 128, for
example, you can display starting mode, mode changes and shifts. Code 16K
allows you to display similar additional characters.
