Transmit Check Digit
If the check digit is to be transmitted with the data, this parameter must be enabled.
Transmit Number System
If this parameter is enabled, the number system digit is transmitted with the decoded
bar code data.
Convert To UPC-A
This parameter converts UPC E (zero suppressed) decoded data to UPC A format
before transmission. After conversion, data follows UPC A format and is affected
by UPC A programming selections (e.g. Check Digit).

5.27.3.9 UPC/EAN Shared
The setting assigned to the “Addendum” parameter associated with this option is
shared across all UPC and EAN bar codes.
Addendum
An addendum is a separate bar code, supplementary to the main bar code.
This parameter provides two options: Not Required but Transmitted if Read or
Required and Transmitted.
• Double-tap on Addendum to display a dialog box listing your options.
• Highlight an item, and tap on OK.
When “Addendum” is set to Not Required but Transmitted if Read, the scanner
searches for an addendum and if one exists, appends it to the main bar code. When
the parameter is set to Required and Transmitted, the scanner does not accept the
main bar code without an addendum.
Addendum Add-on 2 And Addendum Add-on 5
Enabling these parameters sets the length of the addendum bar code to either 2 or
5 characters.
