QR Code is a high density 2 dimensional barcode that can encode up to 3990 characters.
QR Code was designed for high-speed component scanning
The D194 command is used to receive and process the QR Code barcode with the
elements discussed below.
Once the QR Code barcode data is entered and processed, the barcode image may be
placed using the normal format field by using a TCI of 53.
The sample below shows how to generate a data matrix symbol:
