Yes. The first character is the number system, the last is the check digit. To program the Cordless System to drop these characters, turn to UPC Selection under Retail Symbology in the Cordless System Manual. To drop the Check Digit Scan the Don’t Transmit bar code located next to the Check Digit heading. To drop the Number System Digit, Scan the Don’t Transmit bar code next to the Number System heading. You will need to repeat this process for each variation of UPC A and UPC E.
