ECI Policy
Extended Channel Interpretation (ECI) is an extension to the communication protocol
that is used to transmit data from a bar code reader to a host when a bar code symbol is
scanned. It enables the application software to receive additional information about the
intended interpretation of the message contained within the barcode symbol and even
details about the scan itself.
There are two reference models for data interchange in bar coding systems:
The Basic Channel Model (BCM) describes the functional components that co-operate
to c
onvey a message via a traditional bar coding system.
The Extended Channel Model (ECM) adds a processing layer to the front and back ends
of the Basic Channe
l, to enable ECI-capable data carriers to convey both the message
and information about that message.
Select Transmit t
o
set the data interface in "Extended Channel Mode".
Select Remove to set the
data interface in “Basic Channel Mode”.
