Codabar Check Character
A modulo 16 check character may be encoded in Codabar. Since the symbology
does not provide any means to indicate whether the check character was
encoded, the reader cannot autodiscriminate. Therefore, the reader must be
configured if it is to perform check character validation. Refer to
AIM Uniform
Symbology Specification Codabar for more information.
Concatenation
Codabar supports symbol concatenation. When you turn concatenation on, the
reader will look for a Codabar symbol having a “D” start character, adjacent to a
symbol having a “D” stop character. In this case the two messages are
concatenated into one with the “D” characters omitted.
Select Require to prevent the reader from decoding a lone Codabar symbol.
