Transmit Check Character
Interleaved 2 of 5 Code Parameters.
For the Interleaved 2 of 5 code type can be printed with a check digit. The scanner can be
programmed to verify that this check digit is correct. It can also be programmed to include
the check digit in the data transmission, if desired.
Because of certain characteristics of the Interleaved two of five code, it is recommended
that a fixed code lengths be used. This prevents problems of reading fewer characters than
are actually in the barcode. As the scanner is received, it is programmed to read any
length, up to 30 characters. Up to three fixed lengths can be programmed. To program a
fixed length, scan the “Define Length” barcode below. The length entered must be ex-
pressed as a Hexadecimal number, rather than decimal. Turn to the table in Appendix A to
convert the desired length to a Hexadecimal number. For example, for a length of 10, the
Hexadecimal number would be 0A. Next, turn to Appendix C. Scan the barcode for 0, then
the code for A. Make sure to only scan each code once. If an error occurs, scan the Abort
code above, and restart. Scan the Set code in Appendix C. Scan the End code at the top of
any page.
