IP-BC-BT User’s Manual v1.01 
Barcodes
 
 
Bar Code Symbologies Supported 
 
The IP-BC-BT scanner support a number of different bar code symbologies and it can 
return a code indicating the type of symbology that was scanned (either 
AIM Code
 or 
NCR Identifier
). Different symbologies are often used for different purposes. For 
example, most retail products use a UPC code. The case containing that same product 
probably uses an ITF (Interleaved 2 of 5) bar code. Knowing which type of symbology 
was scanned can be used to determine if the data is from a case or an individual 
product. The Flic supports the following barcode symbologies and options: 
 
EAN/UPC 
 
These are the mostly commonly used bar code symbologies. UPC and EAN are used 
to identify nearly all retail products. The Flic supports EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, 
and add-on symbols (both 2 and 5-digit add-ons). The Flic can also combine the add-
on symbols with the base barcodes. 
 
CODE 128 
 
The name CODE 128 derives from its ability to encode 128 different data characters 
at a high density. The Flic supports Function Code 1 and 2 options, but does not 
support the concatenation feature (pad character). 
 
Code-39 
 
Code-39, or Code 3 of 9, is used extensively in military and medical applications. The 
Flic supports Code-39 standard and checksum options (including stripping the 
checksum character). Full ASCII conversion and concatenation features are not 
supported. 
 
ITF (Interleaved 2 of 5) 
 
ITF is used extensively in warehousing applications and many retail products use ITF 
bar codes on product cases (individual items use UPC but ITF is often used on the 
case). The Flic supports standard and checksum options (including stripping the 
checksum character). Minimum and Maximum decode lengths are also supported. 
Note that Maximum decode length does not provide any additional barcode decoding 
integrity. Full ASCII conversion and concatenation features are not supported.
