GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked (Formerly RSS Expanded Stacked - Reduced Space Symbology) CC-A and CC-B Composite Barcodes

This Symbology is also known as GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked Composite Barcode, GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked CC-A (CCA), GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked CC-B (CCB), GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked Composite A, GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked Composite B, GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked 2D Composite, GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked Composite Component A, GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked Composite Component B

This Barcode Symbology is supported by the following Neodynamic products:

Overview

GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked (Formerly RSS Expanded Stacked - Reduced Space Symbology) CC-A and CC-B Composite BarcodesIn Barcode Composite Symbology, the linear component encodes the item's primary identification while the adjacent 2D Composite Component (abbreviated as CC) encodes supplementary data, such as a batch number and expiration date. The Composite Symbol always includes a linear component so that the primary identification is readable by all scanning technologies. The Composite Symbol always includes a multi-row 2D Composite Component that can be read with linear- and area-CCD scanners, and with linear and rastering laser scanners. The 2D Composite Component is printed above the linear component and both are separated by a separator pattern.

GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked (formerly RSS Expanded Stacked) Composite Barcode is an GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked linear barcode linked to a 2D barcode called CC-A or CC-B.
  • GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked is a variable length linear symbology capable of encoding up to 74 numeric or 41 alphabetic characters of AI Element String data. GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked is designed to encode primary and supplementary data in items for Point-of-Sale (POS) and other applications. It has the same capabilities as a GS1-128 (UCC/EAN-128) barcode except that it is also designed to be scanned by omnidirectional slot scanners. It is designed for variable weight products, perishable products, traceable retail products, and coupons. The user data to be encoded into a GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked barcode shall always consist of application identifiers and data fields that comply with the data standard of the GS1 General Specifications, formatted exactly as they would be for encodation into a GS1-128 (UCC/EAN-128) barcode. The GS1-128 (UCC/EAN-128) rules for concatenation of AI element strings, such as the use of a FNC1 to separate a variable length element string from the element string following it, shall be followed when encoding a GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked barcode.
  • The 2D Composite Component that can be liked to GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked can be one of the following depending on the amount of supplementary data to be encoded:
    • CC-A: it is a variant of MicroPDF417 barcode and the smallest of the 2D Composite Components which can encode up to 56 digits.
    • CC-B: it is a subset of MicroPDF417 barcode which can encode up to 338 digits. Encoding systems normally automatically select CC-B when the data to be encoded exceeds the capacity of CC-A.

How to create GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked CC-A and CC-B Composite Barcodes using Barcode Professional for

Note: Please refer to the Class Reference documentation for more information about the properties and methods stated in this document.
In order to get GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked CC-A and CC-B Composite Barcode images, please follow these steps:
  • Set the Symbology property to GS1DataBarExpandedStackedCCA or GS1DataBarExpandedStackedCCB or RssExpandedStackedCCA or RssExpandedStackedCCB
  • Setting up dimensions and quiet zones:
    • Set the BarWidth property to 0.0208 (Value is expressed in Inches)
    • Set the BarRatio property to 3
    • Set the BarHeight property to 0.7072 (34 * BarWidth) or higher (Value is expressed in Inches)
    • Set the SegmentsPerRow property to an even number ranging from 2 up to 22. Default is 4.
  • Set the Code property with the primary and secondary values separated by | char (See example below).
  • Set the Text property to the Secondary Data which was encoded into the 2D Component

In order to get GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked CC-A and CC-B Composite Barcode images, please follow these steps:
  • Set the Symbology property to GS1DataBarExpandedStackedCCA or GS1DataBarExpandedStackedCCB or RssExpandedStackedCCA or RssExpandedStackedCCB
  • Setting up dimensions and quiet zones:
    All values for barcode dimensions are expressed in INCHES by default. However, Barcode Professional supports other unit of measurement such as Millimeter, Centimeter, and Mils. For modifying the unit of measurement for barcoding, please set up the BarcodeUnit property as needed.
