OCR Check Character
You may want to print and verify a check character in order to
enhance the security of your OCR application. The AS-9500 can
be programmed for almost any type of check character. A number
of presets are provided for common check character uses (e.g.,
modulo 10 and modulo 36).
Scan the OCR Modulo 10 or OCR Modulo 36 Check Character
bar code to specify the type of check character used in the OCR
strings you’re scanning. The imager will then only read OCR
character strings with a valid check character. The AS-9500
transmits the OCR data without the
check character data. You must specify the location of the check
character in the template with a c.
Example: You need to read any combination of seven digits, with
a modulo 10 check character in the eighth position. The template
would be: dddddddc
To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font. Scan
the Modulo 10 Check Character symbol. Then scan the Enter
OCR Template symbol, and scan the d from the OCR
Programming Chart seven times, and scan the c once. Scan Save
OCR Template . This template will let you read any combination
of six digits with a correct check character after. (If the check
character is invalid, the imager will issue an error beep.) For
example, the following string could be scanned:
and the output would be: 0123456
