When the scanner is in Wincor-Nixdorf RS232 Mode B, the Zebra JPOS return value for the ScanDataType property differs from the expected value for the bar code types listed below.
Table 2 Bar Code Types Not Accurately Identified in Wincor-Nixdorf RS232 Mode B
| Symbology Type | Expected Value | Zebra RSM JPOS Return Value | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| UPC-A with supplemental bar code | SCAN_SDT_UPCA_S | SCAN_SDT_UPCA | Nixdorf Mode B cannot distinguish UPCA since it identifies bar code types UPCA, UPCA_S, EAN13, EAN13_S, and BOOKLAND as one type. |
| UPC-E with supplemental bar code | SCAN_SDT_UPCE_S | SCAN_SDT_UPCE | Nixdorf Mode B identifies both bar code types UPCE and UPCE_S as UPCE. |
| EAN 8 with supplemental bar code | SCAN_SDT_EAN8_S | SCAN_SDT_EAN8 | Nixdorf Mode B identifies both EAN8 and EAN8_S bar code types as EAN8. |
| EAN 13 | SCAN_SDT_EAN13 | SCAN_SDT_UPCA | Nixdorf Mode B cannot distinguish EAN 13 since it identifies bar code types UPCA, UPCA_S, EAN13, EAN13_S, and BOOKLAND as one type. |
| EAN 13 with supplemental bar code | SCAN_SDT_EAN13_S | SCAN_SDT_UPCA | Nixdorf Mode B cannot distinguish EAN 13_S since it identifies bar code types UPCA, UPCA_S, EAN13, EAN13_S, and BOOKLAND as one type. |
