4.  Barcode Symbologies 

Barcodes are symbols consisting of a series of bars and spaces which can be applied 
to packages, cartons, bottles and other commercial products.  The bars and spaces in 
each symbol are grouped in such a way to represent a specific ASCII character or 
function. The interpretation of these groups is based on a particular set of rules called 
Symbologies. Various symbologies have been developed for particular applications. 
Some examples are shipping and receiving, manufacturing, retail, healthcare, 
transportation, document processing and tracking, and libraries. 
 
NUSCAN 2100 Series Scanners can read most of the popular barcode symbologies 
including Code 39, Code 93, Code 128, Interleaved 2 of 5, UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN/JAN-
8, EAN/JAN-13 & CodaBar.

unit flashes green and the buzzer sounds. If the barcode is not successfully read, the 
LED will show red and the buzzer will not sound.
