GS1-Mode
The GS1-Mode is configurable as to how closely the GS1
specification is followed. This allows future changes in GS1
compaction to be processed without error. In some cases this
parameter will activate Enhanced features.
The values for GS1-Mode are bit values and are as follows:
0x01
GS1 AI and Compaction Active (If this bit is not set no
GS-1 AI processing is performed. The input data is not
scanned nor are the AI fields preprocessed or
compressed. Not setting this option may produce
invalid GS1 barcodes.
0x02
AI field lengths are not strictly enforced.
0x04
No GS1 faults are generated. All AI fields and
compaction that can be processed will be but unknown
fields or fields in error will not stop the barcode
generation. Setting this may produce invalid barcodes.
0x08
AI (01) data field may be passed 12, 13, or 14 bytes.
12 and 13 byte fields will be expanded to 14 with
leading zeros.
0x10
The check digit in AI fields (00), (01), (02), (253), (402),
(410) trough (415), (8003) and (8018) may be replaced
with a ‘*’ and the EPIC 3000 will replace the ‘*’ with a
check digit for that field calculated as defined in the
GS1 general specification.
0x20
Use () to delineate AI fields rather than []
Default The default value for most barcodes is 0x19 which
provides variation of the AI (01) length and optional
automatic check digit generation. If you require strict
compliance with the GS1 general specification, set the
GS1-Mode to 0x01.
f = P, 50H, 80D
HRI Position
f =0
– Off, f = 1 - Top, f =2 - Bottom, f =3 - Both
f = F, 46H, 70D
HRI Font
f = 0 Medium, f=1 Larger, f- 2 Smaller (Note: Fonts may be
redefined by using the change legacy font command. See page
215 )
f = H, 48H, 72D
Space above and below the barcode between the barcode and
any HRI if active. This is in dots.
Typically 2 dots although some 2D barcodes require more.
If HRI is inactive, it is up to the user to enforce any extra quite
zone between the barcode and any user data.
f = C, 43H, 67D
Composite Secondary Mode
f = 0=Auto, 1=CC-A, 2=CC-B, or 3=CC-3
