Barcode Interpretation Definition

A Barcode Interpretation Definition uses a string pattern to identify the barcodes format and handle the barcode accordingly.

The string pattern allows the disection, translation or substitution of a barcode to identify Customer-ID, Media-ID and Volume-ID.

To view, add, remove or alter current Barcode Interpretation Definitions, open the Barcode Administration window in TapeMaster.

Examples
