Equation to Determining Potential Number of Stored
Barcodes
The number of barcodes that can be stored in the KDC memory depends on the size of the barcodes.
Example
: If only UPCA barcodes are scanned and the check digit is not transmitted, then each barcode
takes up 11 (barcode data) + 2 (added bytes) + 2 (length and type) + 4 (time stamp) = 19 bytes. The
maximum number of UPCA barcodes that can be saved is 204,800/19 =10,778. However, KDC has limited
the maximum number of barcode as 10,240 and users can't store more than 10,240 barcodes in 2.85/86
version. 3.0x version allows user to store maximum 204,800 barcodes.
Data Buffer Full
When the data buffer is full, the KDC displays a message, Buffer Full, ignoring any command to scan
barcodes. You must reset the data buffer to continue data collection.
