Check Digit Verification

A check digit is optional for Matrix 2 of 5 and can be added as the last digit. It is a calculated value used to
verify the integrity of the data.
Disable: The scanner transmits Matrix 2 of 5 barcodes as is.
Do Not Transmit Check Digit After Verification: The scanner checks the integrity of all Matrix 2 of 5
barcodes to verify that the data complies with the check digit algorithm. Barcodes passing the check will
be transmitted except the last digit, whereas those failing it will not be transmitted.
Transmit Check Digit After Verification: The scanner checks the integrity of all Matrix 2 of 5 barcodes
to verify that the data complies with the check digit algorithm. Barcodes passing the check will be
transmitted, whereas those failing it will not be transmitted.
Since Matrix 2 of 5 must always have an even number of digits, a zero may need to be added as the first
digit when the check digit is added. The check digit is automatically generated when making Matrix 2 of 5
barcodes.
** Do Not Transmit Check Digit After Verification
If the Do Not Transmit Check Digit After Verification option is enabled, Matrix 2 of 5
barcodes with a length that is less than the configured minimum length after having
the check digit excluded will not be decoded. (For example, when the Do Not
Transmit Check Digit After Verification option is enabled and the minimum length is
set to 4, Matrix 2 of 5 barcodes with a total length of 4 characters including the check
digit cannot be read.)
