Syntax for GS1 DataBar (spaces added for readability):
a W1 k c d eee ffff gggg h i j m n…n | p…p
Where:
Field Valid Inputs Meaning
a
1,2,3, and 4 Rotation
W1 W1 Fixed value, extended bar code set
k
k Selects GS1 bar code
c
1 to 9, A to Z, and a to z Wide bar ratio, default = 2
d
1 to 9, A to Z, and a to z Narrow bar ratio, default = 2
eee 000 No effect
ffff
0000 to 9999 Label position, row
gggg
0000 to 9999 Label position, column
h R, T, S, D, L
GS1 Type:
R = GS1 DataBar Omnidirectional,
T = GS1 DataBar Truncated,
S = GS1 DataBar Stacked,
D = GS1 DataBar Stacked Omni-Directional,
L = GS1 DataBar Limited
i 1-9 Pixel Multiplier
j
0 to (i-1) X pixels to undercut
m 0 to (i-1) Y pixels to undercut
n…n
0 to 9 Numeric linear data, length 13 [1]
|
| (optional)
Vertical bar separates primary linear data from secondary
2-D data
p…p
2-D data (optional) Additional 2-D data [2]
[1] The application identifier is not encoded in the symbol nor is the last check digit; the user
should enter in a 13-digit value. The decoding system will display the application identifier and
calculate the check digit.
[2] The separator row height for two-dimensional composite is fixed at one times the pixel
multiplier.
