2.Enter the characters in order. For each character, look up the corresponding hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-4. Use the Programming Chart on the inside the back cover of this manual to scan the two symbols for each hex value.

3.Scan the Save barcode on the inside back cover.

Example: To program the modulo 11 check character from example #8 on page 9-9, enable the OCR-A font. Scan the Enter OCR Check Character barcode on page 9-9, then scan the following hex values in order:

3031323334353637383958

After you enter all the desired hex values, scan the Save barcode on the inside back cover of this manual.

Weighting Options

By default, the check character computation is unweighted. It is possible to use one of two weighted modulo 10 schemes. Weighting is often used to detect if two neighboring characters are transposed, a common error when an operator keys in data.

3-1-3-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character

Starting with the check character and working backward through the message, the imager applies a multiplier of 1, then 3, then 1, then 3, and so on. This is the checking scheme used in many EAN•UCC symbologies, including U.P.C. and Interleaved 2 of 5 (when a check digit is invoked). To apply this weighting scheme, set the OCR check character to “0123456789x3x1” or scan the following symbol:

3-1-3-1 Weighted Modulo 10

Check Character

Example: Scan the 3-1-3-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character symbol. Also enter the OCR template:

dddddddc

Then scan the string below:

01234565

The reader performs the check character computation below:

(0 x 3 + 1 x 1 + 2 x 3 + 3 x 1 + 4 x 3 + 5 x 1 + 6 x 3 + 5 x 1) modulo 10 = 0
