Decode UPC/EAN/JAN Supplementals
Supplemental are bar codes appended according to speci
fi
c format conventions (e.g.,
UPC A+2, UPC E+2, EAN 13+2). Six options are available.
If Decode UPC/EAN/JAN Only With Supplemental is selected, UPC/EAN/JAN symbols
without supplemental are not decoded.
If Ignore Supplemental is selected, and the decoder is presented with a UPC/EAN/JAN with
a supplemental, the UPC/EAN/JAN is decoded and the supplemental bar code is ignored.
An Auto discriminate Option is also available. If this option is selected, choose an appro-
priate UPC/EAN/JAN
Supplemental Redundancy value from the next page. A value of 5 or more is recommend-
ed.
