Ean13 Barcode Settings
X006 e d x p s
e
1 = enable ean13; 0 = disable ean13 reading
d
1 = include direction indicator; 0 = don’t include
x
extra bars setting, 0 thru 4
p

s

NOTES
• If the direction indicator is turned on, then the ean13 data is prefixed with a “f” to indicate that the card was read in a forward
direction, “r” to indicate it was read in the reverse direction.
• If the ean13 barcode has extra bars in it, before or after the barcode, you can set the extra bars parameter to the number of
allowable extra bars. The reader will ignore the extra bars and “find” the ean13 barcode within the bars.
• If you set the prefix or suffix on, the any prefix that you program for ean13 will be prepended to the
ean13 data, and any suffix that you program will be appended to the ean13 data.
Ean13 Prefix
X028 aaa bbb ccc ddd eee
aaa-eee 3-digit ascii value for a character, max=126, 000=end
You can program up to 5 characters to be prepended to ind2of5 data. To set a character use the 3-digit decimal value for the
character, i.e. “A” = hex 41 = 065 decimal. Use 000 to signify the end of the prefix data.
Example:
X028049050000000000
Inserts a prefix of “12” in front of the ean13 data.
