You need to use an advanced data formatting rule (ADF) - see below:

                There is no explicit setting for disabling the check digit, but you can configure DataWedge to only send the first 7 and 12 digits for EAN8 and EAN13 respectively.

If you have more than 1 scanning device:

Tap to uncheck “All”
For all other devices besides the one you are scanning with (eg: the camera if you are scanning with 2d blockbuster imager):

tap the name
tap included (to uncheck)
back

Tap the scanning device you are scanning with
Ensure “Included” is checked

All (to uncheck)
EAN13 (to check)
