Code 11
Code 11 is a discrete code capable of encoding variable length messages from
the set of numerics plus the -" character. The symbology derived its name
from the size of its character set. Each character in Code 11 has three bars and
two internal spaces: two of these elements are wide, the other three are narrow.
The exceptions to this are the 0", 9", and -" characters, which have one
extra wide element and four narrow elements. Code 11 can be decoded as a
two width symbology, though the bars can assume one of three widths.
Default = On.

Check Digits Required
The Code 11 specification strongly recommends the use of two check digits.
The decoder can be programmed to read Code 11 symbols having only one
check digit. Bar code readers cannot autodiscriminate the number of check
digits encoded in a symbol. Default = 2 Check Digits.

Please scan your selection on the Programming Chart (inside back cover).
Programming Tip: If a symbology won't be used, we recommend turning it off
to minimize the chance of a misread.
