How to activate barcode types in EVO Logic™

This article explains how to activate and define user-specific barcode types in EVO Logic™.

- Start the EVO Logic™ application.
- Open the Methods Editor and choose a method.
- The following options can be defined under the “Barcode” tab:

ActivateBCTypes_1

- Type:

Choose the barcode types that should be recognized by the PosID. Do not select every type of barcode; only choose the barcode types used in the application.

- Length:

Specify the length of the barcode:

0 = the length of the barcode will not be checked
1–30 = the length of the barcode must match this value (checksum and start/stop code are also counted)

Note: Different lengths are not accepted.

- Check mode:

If this field is left empty, the checksum will not be checked. The available options are:

Evaluate/transmit = the checksum is checked and reported
Evaluate/don't transmit = the checksum is checked, but not reported

Note: Do not configure the software to ignore the checksum here. For barcodes without checksum, the length of the barcode must at least be specified.

- Start/stop:

Empty = a start/stop code is not required
Transmit = a start/stop code is required and reported
Don't transmit = a start/stop code is required, but not reported

Note: We highly recommend using the transmit function.

- Filter:

A filter for the sample barcodes can be specified here. A sequence of 0s and 1s must be entered, where “0” causes a character to be ignored. For example, if 00011110 is entered, only the characters from position 4 to position 7 will be regarded. If the first character is an “R”, the specified pattern will be applied right-aligned to the sample barcode.

Note: If this field is left empty, the barcodes will not be filtered.

- No tube:

This code signals an empty position in a linear rack.

- End code:

This code signals the end of a sample scan.

 

Next steps in case there are further questions:

- Note your serial number. Where do I find my serial number?
- Create a service request.
