Check Character Status (Codabar)
Definition: When disabled, the MS-1 will not perform any character checking calculations

calculation on the symbol. If the symbol does not pass this calculation, it will
not be decoded.

Check Character Output (Codabar)
Definition: When this field is disabled and a check character calculation is enabled, the
MS-1 will strip the verified check character from the symbol data output. This
condition must be accounted for if a minimum length is also being used.
When enabled, the MS-1 will output the check character as part of the
symbol data. This condition must be accounted for if a minimum length is
also being used.
