• CLSI is a form of Codabar often used by libraries.

• Setting 5 will transmit the Codabar start and stop characters with the bar code

data to your computer. If you are varying the start and stop characters to

differentiate between different labels, transmitting the start and stop can be

helpful. See Appendix G; Codabar for more information.

• Setting 2 requires that the last digit in your bar code conform to the

specifications for the 2 of 5 check digit calculation. See Appendix I; 2 of 5

Code for more information.

• Transmission of the check digit (5) requires the use of setting 2 and will

transmit the check digit along with the bar code data to the computer.

• Setting B pertains to the decoding algorithms used by the RF Terminal when

using a Laser Scanner. In most cases, this should be left at the default B

setting.

• If scanning through windshields with a laser scanner, (the Symbol LS2000 is

the best performer) try setting this parameter to C or D. Try C first, if you

still don't have satisfactory results, try D.
