[Mod36:X] Calculate The Modulo 36 Check Digit - CAB A+ Series Programming Manual

[MOD36:x]
Calculates and prints the Modulo 36 Check digit.
Syntax:
This function can be used to visualize check digits of barcodes, which are sometimes invisible. Some
barcodes use a check digit for the scanner only which is not displayed in the human readable line.
Some applications require this check digit for internal usage. This can be done with the „Mod36"
function. This function makes only sense together with Code39.
Example:
This example uses the input variable for a Code 39 barcode. Usually only the input data is copied to a
second field, as the printer can not know, that the - normally invisible check digit shall be shown on the
label. Therefor [MOD36:input] is used.
