Start/Stop Transmit
Setting this parameter to on enables the transmission of start and stop characters, which are
usually not transmitted. Code 39 can start and end with either a * or a $ character (see also
the next parameter).
Accepted Start Char
This parameter allows the user the option of using one of the two start/stop characters or
both ($ char, * char, $ and * char).
Check Digit Verification
Uses the specified algorithm of the option you've chosen to ensure the integrity of the
symbol data before transmitting. If the data does not contain that algorithm, the data is not
transmitted. The available options are: Disabled, MOD 43 Check, French CIP, or
Italian CIP.
Transmit Check Digit
If the check digit is to be transmitted with the data, this parameter must be enabled.
Minimum Length
Minimum lengths for the bar code can be set from 0 to 255. The length of a code refers to
the number of characters (i.e., human readable characters), including check digit(s).

7 characters.
Italian CIP (Italian pharmaceutical) is also known as Code 32. It is transmitted as a
standard Code 39 if checksum is not validated.
