Barcode scanning
You can use the Avery Berkel scanner to:
•
read in-store or branded barcodes at a PoS machine when your machine is in sales
mode.
•
help you program PLUs when your machine is in manager mode (see
section 6.4
,
page 81
).
Please remember .....
You can only use the scanner if an appropriate barcode is displayed on the goods.
Branded goods
Branded goods have the barcode printed on the packaging by the manufacturer. The
barcode is registered with the EAN authority and is known as a source marked barcode.
In-store goods
If you wish to scan in-store goods you must print a suitable barcode and attach it to the
product being sold.
Note: RSS Limited barcodes are not suitable for use with some types of scanner.
Reading a barcode
When the barcode is scanned, the machine searches the barcode list for a prefix that
matches the one in the scanned barcode. If it fails to find a matching barcode it treats the
barcode as a dry article barcode.
The barcode format can either be the one assigned to the machine or the barcode format
programmed in the PLU. The machine will use a PLU barcode if programmed rather than
the one assigned to the machine.
Please remember .....
The scanner will use the first barcode type it encounters with a prefix matching the
one on the goods. It is important that you do not program different barcode types
with the same prefix.
Assigning a barcode
•
Assign any barcode reference to the machine and program the required label barcode
in the PLU.
Programming the barcode in the PLU is the preferred method as it is the safest
or
•
Assign the required barcode reference to the machine and program the PLU barcode
reference to 0.
