3.1. Setting of readable codes
These options do not affect the reading of the
menu labels. The required bar code types can
be selected by enabling a single readable code
only and enabling readable codes.
It is strongly recommended to select only
the required codes.
Advantages of selecting only the required
codes are:
• faster reading
• no accidental scanning of unwanted bar
codes
• reduced probability of reading errors which
can not be prevented completely, because of
the limited security of some bar code types
Some bar codes are translations or special
variants of other bar code types. The table on
the title page of this chapter visualizes these
relations. The setting of different codes is
explained in the next chapter 3.1.1. Enabling a
single read. code.

With this option you can set the reader to read

If you want to read Code 39 only, you read the
option 'Code 39 only'. See figure 3.01.
Example 2:
If you want to read one of the special bar codes
that is a variation of the readable code, read
the single read. code option followed by the
dedicated variation option from the applicable
symbology options chapter.
• EAN128 only: read the option 'Code 128 only'
followed by 'Enable EAN-128 only' from the
'Options for Code 128'.
