MSI/Plessey Check Character Calculation

Enables/disables calculation and verification of optional MSI/Plessey check characters.

If check character calculation is disabled, the risk is increased that a mis-

read can occur. When disabled, any check characters in a bar code are

treated as data characters.

NOTE

To set this feature:

1.Scan the SWITCH bar code.

2.Scan either the enable or disable bar code below. You’ll need to cover any unused bar codes on this and the facing page to ensure that the scanner reads only the bar code you intend to scan.

3.Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH bar code.
