CCG Validator

Features
Read full description

CCG Validator turns your device into a field validation tool for 2D barcodes. Scan a mark, see immediately whether it passes according to your standard's compliance. MULTIPLE VALIDATION ENGINES • UID — MIL-STD-130 item unique identification, Construct 1 and Construct 2, with optional NSN and ITAR export code requirements • UDI — unique device identification across GS1, HIBC, and ISBT issuing agencies • GS1 — application identifier parsing and validation Choose the engine per report, so every scan in a job is checked against the same standard. SCAN VALIDATION Each result breaks the mark out field by field with its data identifier, resolved construct, and message format. A failed mark lists the specific errors that caused it. • Single mode for deliberate one-at-a-time checks, continuous mode to quickly scan marks without stopping • Optional photo capture on failed marks for remarking purposes • Pinch to zoom, tap to focus, and a built-in light for marks in dark or tight spots REPORTING Group scans into a report with its own number, location, and validation settings. Watch the count climb as you work, then submit the finished report when you're ready. Scans are saved on the device as you go. SHARE THE RESULTS Export any report to an Excel workbook — valid, invalid, and collected marks at a glance, every data identifier in its own column, and the UII written alongside each UID mark. Send it straight from your device.
