About Codabar Options
The Codabar symbology has the following programmable features:
•Check Digit
•Gap Check
•Label Length Format
•Start/Stop Character
•Start/Stop Match
•Start/Stop Format
•Read Verification
Check Digit
Check Digit calculates the check digit to verify the label contents have been read correctly. If you enable this feature, your labels must include a check digit. You may also choose to transmit or not transmit the check digit.
If the check digit is not calculated, the digit will be sent regardless of settings for transmit or don’t transmit. For example, if you choose to transmit check digit, but not calculate it, the scanner sends the check digit encoded in the label without verifying its accuracy.
Gap Check
Disabling Gap Check allows the scanner to combine two label halves printed in close proximity to each other that may have been printed at different times and perhaps different locations.
Label Length Format
Label length format permits the selection between variable length or fixed length formats. For best performance it is recommended to use the Fixed Length settings when your application requires only one or two label lengths.
