Codabar (continued)

Check Character

Codabar check characters are created using different "modulos." You can
program the scanner to read only Codabar bar codes with Modulo 16 check
characters. Default = No Check Character.
No Check Character indicates that the scanner reads and transmits bar code
data with or without a check character.
When Check Character is set to Validate and Transmit , the scanner will only
read Codabar bar codes printed with a check character, and will transmit this
character at the end of the scanned data.
When Check Character is set to Validate, but Don't Transmit , the unit will only
read Codabar bar codes printed with a check character, but will not transmit the
check character with the scanned data.

Concatenation

Codabar supports symbol concatenation. When you Enable concatenation, the
scanner looks 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. Default = On.
