• The Start and Stop character for Code 39 is the * character. Settings 6 and
7 determine whether or not those characters are transmitted to the computer
along with the data. For example, at setting 6, the data of 1234 would be
transmitted as *1234*. Transmitting the start and stop characters can be
useful if you need to differentiate between data that comes from a bar code
versus data coming from the keypad.
• Enabling use of the Mod 43 check character requires that the last character of
your bar code conform to the Mod 43 check character specifications. See
Appendix E; Code 39 for more information. Enable transmission (A) will
send the check digit data along with the rest of the bar code data to your
computer. To use A, you must also be using 8.
• Caps Lock ON causes lower case letters read as data to be transmitted to
the computer as UPPER CASE, and upper case letters to be transmitted as
LOWER CASE. Numbers, punctuation and control characters are not
affected. Caps Lock OFF means that letters will be transmitted exactly as
read. This setting applies to all bar code types.
• See Appendix E; Code 39 for more information regarding Accumulate
Mode.
