set via UPC/EAN Supplemental Redundancy before transmitting its data to confirm that there is no
supplemental.
• Supplemental Smart - Enables smart supplementals. In this mode the decoder returns the decoded
value of the main block right away if it does not belong to one of the following supplemental types: 378,
379, 977, 978, 979, 414, 419, 434 or 439. If the bar code starts with one of the prefixes it searches the
image more aggressively for a supplemental. Tries to scan the supplemental if it is present. If the
supplemental scanning failed, then the main bar code is returned.
• Supplemental 378-379 - Enables (auto-discriminate) supplemental for UPC/EAN codes starting with 378
or 379. Disables reading of supplementals for any other UPC/EAN bar code not starting with 378 or 379.

is returned.

or 979. Disables reading of supplementals for another UPC/EAN bar code not starting with 978 or 979.

is returned.
• Supplemental 414-419-434-439 - Enables (auto-discriminate) supplemental for UPC/EAN codes starting
with 414, 419, 434 or 439. Disables reading of supplementals for another UPC/EAN bar code 4 - 16 not
starting with 414, 419, 434 or 439. Tries to scan the supplemental if it is present. If the supplemental
scanning failed, then the main bar code is returned.
• Supplemental 977 - Enables (auto-discriminate) supplemental for UPC/EAN codes starting with 977.
Disables reading of supplementals for another UPC/EAN bar code not starting with 977. Tries to scan the
supplemental if it is present. If the supplemental scanning failed, then the main bar code is returned.

information included in the new coupon symbol, as well as those who can process new coupon symbols.

is interim coupon symbol reports UPC, and scanning a new coupon symbol reports nothing (no decode).
• New Coupon Report Mode - Scanning an old coupon symbol reports either UPC or Code 128, and
scanning an interim coupon symbol or a new coupon symbol reports Databar Expanded.
• Both Coupon Report Modes - Scanning an old coupon symbol reports both UPC and Code 128, and
