Multiple Reads
(1-99)
Enter the number of identical reads the scanner must decode (in one reading gate) before transmitting the result to the host
device. This process increases output reliability. The selected scanning frequency and the speed at which the bar code is moving
past the CLV should be considered when making this selection. If the number of multiple reads specified by the user is not ful-
filled, the CLV will send the bar code string or error string (software selectable) to the host along with the error status ST=5, if the
ST value has been placed in the separator.
Transmit Check Digit
A “yes” allows the check digit to be transmitted to the host device. With a “no” response, the check digit is not transmitted.
Note: The CLV automatically truncates the last digit of the data if “no” to transmit check digit is selected.
Decoding Algorithm
(enhanced/standard)
Selecting “enhanced” will direct the CLV to use a 2-step decoding process; “standard” executes a rapid, 1-step decoding process.
UPC
(Universal Product Code)
A numerical code with two versions, A and E. The character set for Version A is: 10 digits (0 to 9); the number system character;
the module check character. The character set for Version E is: 6 digits (0 to 9).
Figure 3-8 UPC Selection
Code Length:
UPC-A: 12-digit (normal version)
UPC-E: 6-digit (short version)
Each contains a check digit.
With Add-on
(none/2 digit/5-digit/both)
The add-on is an additional bar code of two or five digits that follows the digits of version A or E code. Selectable commands are:
none
=
Add-on is not evaluated
2-digit
=
Evaluate and output 2-digit add-on
5-digit
=
Evaluate and output 5-digit add-on
both
=
Evaluate and output 2-digit AND 5-digit add-on
