AIM ID
AIM (Automatic Identification Manufacturers) label identifiers are assigned from a globally
standardized list — as opposed to custom label ID characters you select yourself — and can be
included with scanned bar code data. AIM label identifiers consist of three characters as follows:
• A close brace character (ASCII ‘]’), followed by...
• A code character (see the table below), followed by...
• A modifier character (the modifier character is symbol dependent)
