Match Code
The Match Code function allows you to enter two bar codes to be compared with the bar codes being read. The following infor-
mation must be programmed:
Match Code 1...2
Check the box to activate the match code to activate.
Message
(32 char. max.)
Program in characters to be used as the comparison code. Maximum length is 32 characters. The # symbol is used to identify a
wild card. See Table 3-4.
Symbology
(a - x)
Using the arrow keys, select the letter that represents the bar code symbology being used as the comparison code.
The characters offered represent the following bar code symbologies:
a
b
c
d
e
i
j
n
o
x
= Codabar
= Code 39
= UPC
= EAN
= Interleaved 2/5
= Code 93
= Code 128
= EAN 128
= Pharmacode
= Code type not relevant
Filter for Output
Without the filter, the CLV transmits all bar codes that are read even if they do not match the match code value. If activated, the
CLV only transmits those values that match the match code value. In addition, if the error status statistic (ST) is being used, a “9”
is inserted into the separator of the data output string.
Note: The code comparison is performed at the end of the reading gate. Caution should be taken if the “immediate” output mode
is selected for the read result. In this case, a bar code may fulfill the defined criteria but fail the match code comparison. The
reading gate then closes prematurely. The “Clock End” output mode under Device Configuration: Clock Pulse: End Clock Pulse
menu should be selected.
