3.3.19. Options for Codablock F

Codablock-F is variable size multi row (stacked)
symbology based on Code 128. All features of
Code 128 do apply for Codablock F.

Maximum data capacity:
• text compaction = alphanumeric data: 2684

characters

• numeric compaction = numeric data: 5368

characters

Symbol size:
• number of rows: 2 up to 44
• number of columns: 1 up to 61

Error detection:
Codablock has 1 additional character for the
entire symbol.
Codablock calculates 1 check digit that is not
transmitted.

Encodable characters:
• ASCII values 0 - 127 ( ISO 646 )
• 4 FNC values
For string format see figure 3.45.

3.3.20. Options for DataMatrix

Data Matrix is a variable size matrix symbology
with selectable error correction levels.

Maximum data capacity (ECC200):
• alphanumeric data: 2335 characters
• 8-bit data: 1556 characters
• numeric data: 3116 characters

Symbol size:
ECC000 - 140:
• odd number of rows and columns, square

shape.

• minimum: 9 * 9 modules, maximum: 49 * 49

modules

ECC200:
• even number of rows and columns, square or

rectangular shape

• square: minimum 10 * 10, maximum 144 *

144 modules

• rectangular: minimum 8 * 18, maximum 16 *

48 modules

Error correction:
• ECC000 - 140: four levels of convolutional

error correction, option for error detection
only

• ECC200: Reed-Solomon error correction
For new applications ECC200 is
recommended.

Additional features:
• extended Channel Interpretation (ECI,

ECC200 only): support for different character
sets and data interpretations

• structured append (ECC200 only): represent

data in up to 16 Data Matrix symbols

Support for these options is reader dependent.
The supported character set and the maximum
decodable number of characters, is reader
dependent

Encodable characters:
• ASCII values 0 - 127 ( ISO 646 )
• ASCII values 128 - 255 ( ISO 8859-1, Latin

alphabet No. 1, extended ASCII )

• with ECI: many other character sets
For string format see figure 3.46.
