b. Replace
n
with a number ranging from 1
through 512 to identify the bar code field. The
SR
and
SC
parameters specify the exact
location of the bar code field identified by
n
.
c. The length of the data field need not be
specified, since it is fixed at 11 digits, plus any
add-on data.
d. The information for the data field is entered
dynamically during the Execute Form mode.
(Refer to “Execute Form: Dynamic Bar Code
Data” on page 63.) Do not use the
data field
parameter to enter data when the BF
n
parameters are used. However, refer to the
data field
description for available characters.
DARK Optional parameter to produce darker bar codes.
Enter DARK. Refer to “Dark Printing” on page 28
for more information.
SR
Defines the starting row for the bar code. Enter a
value ranging from row 1 to one less than the
length of the form. Character row or dot row is
specified based on the Scale command (page 83),
or use the CP.DP format (page 26).
SC
Defines the starting column of the bar code. Enter a
value ranging from column 1 to one less than the
width of the form. Character column or do t column
is specified based on the Scale command (page
83), or use the CP.DP format (page 26).
(D)
The printable character (delimiter) identifying the
start and finish of the data field. Enter any printable
character other than a slash (/), the SFCC, or a
character used within the data. (It will not print with
the data.) Use the same character at both ends of
the data field.
data field
Enter the characters for the bar code data,
restricted to exactly 11 digits. If the 2- or 5-digit
add-on data option is used, include this data at the
end of the data field. The first digit is interpreted as
the number system character. The remaining 10
digits are the data field characters. The characters
available for the data field and number system are
0 through 9 (30 through 39 hex, respectively).
