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.
