how the library handles barcode labels.
Use this parameter If...
Non-check-
summed barcodes
Your labels do not include a checksum.
Check-summed
barcodes
Your labels include a checksum and you want the barcode verified against the
checksum when it is read. Verification is not generally required, but adds extra
confirmation that the barcode label was read correctly by the barcode reader.
Ignore check-sum
barcodes
Your labels include a checksum character but you do not want the barcode
verified against the checksum when it is read. This is the default setting.
Report left-hand
characters
You want the library to report only the left-most x characters in the barcode,
where x is any number from 1 to 16.
For example, if the barcode is 1234567L2 and you configure the library to report
only the five left-most characters, the library reports the barcode as 12345.
Important: Be careful when specifying the number of left-most characters to
report. You may end up with duplicate barcodes reported. For example,
12345XXXL2 and 12345ABCL3 are both reported as 12345.
