UPC/EAN
Purpose:
Enables or disables decoding of UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-8 and EAN-13. When enabled,
supplementals are auto-detected and are transmitted. UPC Preamble of System and
Country Codes are detected and transmitted. Check digits for UPC-A and UPC-E are
detected and transmitted. The 6 digits of UPC-E are expanded into a UPC-A 12-digit
code.
Syntax:
CEdata
Acceptable values for data are four, five, six, or seven digits. The first digit must be 0,
1, or 2. The other digits must be 0 or 1.
0000
Disabled
0111
Enabled
Default:
Enabled
Note:
If any of the first four digits are non-zero (and in the valid range), UPC/EAN decoding
is enabled. If any of the last three digits is included, they are ignored.
All digits must be in the valid ranges. Otherwise, the command is invalid and has no
effect.  For example, $+CE2010010 enables decoding, but $+CE012111 is invalid
because the third digit is 2, so the command has no effect.
