Bar code properties (cont.)

Code39

The Normal CODE 39 is a variable length bar code type that can encode the following 44

characters: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S,

T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z, -, ., *, $, /, +, %. Each Code 39 bar code is framed by a start/stop

character represented by an asterisk (*). The Asterisk is reserved for this purpose and

may not be used in the body of a message. In cases where data security is required

Code 39 allows for a check character.

Code 93

CODE 93 is a variable length bar code type that can encode the complete 128 ASCII

character set. CODE 93 is an enhancement to the Code 39 bar code type that provides a

slightly higher character density than Code 39. CODE 93 also incorporates two check

digits as an added measure of data security.

Code128

Code 128 is a variable length, high density, alphanumeric bar code type. Code 128 has

106 different bar and space patterns and each pattern can have one of three different

meanings, depending on which of three different character sets is employed. One

character set encodes all upper case and ASCII control characters, another encodes all

upper and lower case characters and the third set encodes numeric digit pairs 00 through

99. This third character set effectively doubles the code density when printing numeric

data. Code 128 also employs a check digit for data security.

Enable Code 39

Click on this checkbox to enable Code 39 as an active bar code type.

Transmit Start/Stop

Setting specifies whether the start/stop

characters of Code 39 are included in the data

being transmitted.

Verify Checksum

Setting specifies is the scanner will perform

checksum verification when decoding bar

codes.

Note: If the checksum is incorrect, the bar

code won’t be read.

Transmit Checksum

Setting specifies whether the checksum

characters are included in the data being

transmitted.

Code 39 Full ASCII

Enable this setting to read and decode full ASCII Code 39. The default setting

enables the scanner to read and decode the standard Code 39.
