Template Characters
Note: OCR templates default to eight digits, no check character.
To Add an OCR Template
1. Turn on the OCR font you want to read (page 9-1).
2. Begin building the template.
Scan the
Enter OCR Template symbol (page 9-13).
3. Scan the characters for the string.
Use the Template Characters chart above to determine what characters you
need to create your format. Use the OCR Programming Chart (after the
Sample Codes in the back of this manual) to scan the characters for your
template.
Example: You need to read any combination of eight digits. The template would
be:
dddddddd
To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font. Scan the
Enter
OCR Template
symbol (page 9-13), then scan the d from the OCR
Programming Chart in the back of this manual eight times. Scan
Save OCR
Template
(page 9-14). This would let you read any string of eight digits, for
example:
37680981
a represents any alphanumeric character (digit or letter)
c represents that a check character is verified but not transmitted
d represents any digit
e represents any available OCR character
g represents character from user-defined variable “g”
h represents character from user-defined variable “h”
i represents character from user-defined variable “g” or “h”
k represents that a check character is verified but transmitted
l represents any uppercase letter
t marks the start of a new template
r multi row indicator
All other characters represent themselves. Spaces can be used.
Note: In MICR E13 B templates, TOAD characters (capital letters T, O, A, and D),
represent Transit, On Us, Amount, and Dash.
