Chapter 2 - Configuring and Managing ITE Additional Decode Settings (continued) Symbology Setting Description Sys 0 UPCE Enables or disables UPCE number system 0. Sys 1 UPCE Enables or disables UPCE number system 1. Expand E to A Enables or disables Expand UPC E to UPC A. Value Enabled or Disabled. Default is Disabled. Enabled or Disabled. Default is Disabled. Enabled or Disabled. Default is Disabled. Note: ITE processes EAN 8 and UPC E bar codes in the same manner. The type character for EAN 8 with Add-On 2 or Add-On 5 decodes as UPC E with Add-On 2 or Add-On 5 respectively. The bar code type character also indicates UPC E with Add-On 2 or Add-On 5. Consequently, the drop leading and trailing UPC options are then used when an EAN 8 with Add-On 2 or Add-On 5 is decoded. Note: The Encoded and Auto-Encoded features always delete invalid encoded pairs from the bar code data, including the preamble and postamble characters added under Intermec Settings Data Collection or Scan Prechar or Postchar. When a bar code is scanned while Encoded Save is disabled (default), the characters $ + % / are ignored, as well as the following character, if the following character is not in the table of encoded pairs. This is the standard behavior. If Encoded Save is enabled, however, such invalid pairs of encoded characters are included and passed on as if valid. Setting Bar Code Lengths You can specify the maximum and minimum length for specific bar code symbologies. Setting the length of bar codes helps the computer determine if a scanned bar code is valid and improves response time. The length options must be set for each enabled bar code. Fixed-length entries override the maximum and minimum length entries (minimum and maximum are used for chosen codes). If fixed lengths are not needed for the enabled bar code, enter zero (0). These rules apply to specific symbologies: • Codabar, Str 2of5, Int 2of5, and CI 2of5 bar code symbologies set the length, if fixed-length 1 is non-zero, to three fixed-length entries equal to the first three fixed-lengths (fourth fixed-length is ignored). Otherwise, the length is set to greater than or equal to the minimum length. • Code 39, Code 128, Code 93, and Plessey set the length to any length greater than or equal to the minimum length. • UPC/EAN and Code 11 lengths are not used - ANY is allowed. • Codabar options do not decode less than two data characters (four characters including Start and Stop). • If both CI 2of5 and Str 2of5 are enabled, CI 2of5 options override Str 2 of 5 options. 40 Intermec Terminal Emulator (ITE) User Guide
