Chapter 4 - Configuration Command Reference Code 128/EAN 128 Enables or disables decoding of Code 128/EAN 128 symbology. Code 128 is a very high-density alphanumeric symbology that supports the extended ASCII character set. It is a variable length, continuous code that uses multiple element widths. Code 128 supports the following function codes. Function Code FNC1 FNC2 Description FNC1 is used as a separator when multiple identifiers and their fields are concatenated. For example, FNC1 can be useful in keyboard wedge mode when the GS character cannot be transmitted. When the FNC2 character occurs in a bar code, the SF51 temporarily stores the data from the bar code and transmits it as a prefix to the next symbol. In this way, FNC2 can be used to concatenate several symbols before the data is transmitted. ISBT 128 Enables and configures decoding of ISBT Code 128 symbology. ISBT Code 128 is the global bar code labeling standard for the blood banking industry. It is used to support the worldwide distribution, tracking, and handling of blood bags and blood components. GTIN Processing for EAN 128 With GTIN processing enabled, a GTIN compliant EAN 128 label will have the first two digits stripped and output 14 digits. A GTIN (Global Trade Item Number) compliant EAN 128 label: • is 16 digits long. • has "01" as the first two digits of the label. 42 SF51 Cordless Scanner User's Guide

Description
FNC1
FNC1 is used as a separator when multiple identifiers and
their fields are concatenated. For example, FNC1 can be
useful in keyboard wedge mode when the GS character
cannot be transmitted.
FNC2
When the FNC2 character occurs in a bar code, the SF51
temporarily stores the data from the bar code and
transmits it as a prefix to the next symbol. In this way,
FNC2 can be used to concatenate several symbols before
the data is transmitted.
