ISBT Concatenation
Parameter # 577 (SSI # F1h 41h)
Select an option for concatenating pairs of ISBT code types:
• If you select Disable ISBT Concatenation, the digital scanner does not concatenate pairs of
ISBT codes it encounters.
• If you select Enable ISBT Concatenation, there must be two ISBT codes in order for the digital
scanner to decode and perform concatenation. The digital scanner does not decode single ISBT
symbols.
• If you select Autodiscriminate ISBT Concatenation, the digital scanner decodes and
concatenates pairs of ISBT codes immediately. If only a single ISBT symbol is present, the digital
scanner must decode the symbol the number of times set via <bl_blue><em_Emphasis>ISBT
Concatenation Redundancy on page 14-241 before transmitting its data to confirm that there is no
additional ISBT symbol.
notes The default for SR/DL configurations of the scanner is Disable ISBT Concatenation.
The default for Healthcare configurations of the scanner is Enable ISBT Concatenation.
When enabling ISBT Concatenation or Autodiscriminate ISBT Concatenation set Code 128 security
level to Level 2.
For Autodiscriminate ISBT Concatenation to operate as expected, both ISBT barcodes must be in the
field of view at the same time. This may be difficult to achieve in presentation mode.
