  • Page 106 The FCS can be attached to output data to improve the reliability of communications. Each time data is received, the PC calculates the FCS and checks it against the FCS attached to the sent data so that the send data can be checked for errors.

  • Page 107: Data Capacity Table

    Appendix Data Capacity Table The maximum quantity of information that can be stored depends on the symbol size of the code. Also the maximum data capacity in relation to the amount of information carried by the code depends on the character type and the arrangement and combination of characters. The relation between the symbol size (number of cells) and data capacity is shown in the following table.

  • Page 109 Source: 2D Codes, Basic Specifications for QR Code (JIS X 0510) Maximum Data Capacity Even with the same 2D code, the maximum quantity of information that can be stored depends on the symbol size of the code. In other words, the symbol size must be increased to increase the data capacity.
