Decode UPC/EAN Supplementals
Supplementals are additionally appended characters (2 or 5) according to
specific code format conventions (e.g., UPC A+2, UPC E+2, EAN 8+2). Three
options are available.
•
If UPC/EAN with supplemental characters is selected, UPC/EAN
symbols without supplemental characters are not decoded.
•
If UPC/EAN without supplemental characters is selected, and the
LS 4071 is presented with a UPC/EAN plus supplemental symbol, the
UPC/EAN is decoded and the supplemental characters ignored.
•
An autodiscriminate option is also available. If this option is selected,
choose an appropriate Decode UPC/EAN Supplemental Redundancy
value from the next page. A value of 5 or more is recommended.
Note: To minimize the risk of invalid data transmission,
select whether to read or ignore supplemental
characters.
