ECI Encoding Configuration Reference
Overview
The ECIEncoding.csv file contains the Extended Channel Interpretation (ECI) mappings supported by JavaPOS. ECI provides a method for transmiting additional data within a barcode to the host, most often used to encode national character sets into barcodes that are usually unsupported. Care must be taken changing any value in this file, and is not recommended.
Reference
To enable ECI, set the EnableECI property to true and configure the ECIEncodingFile property (if necessary) within the dls.properties file.
