I 2 of 5 Check Character Calculation

Enables/disables calculation and verification of an optional Interleaved 2
of 5 check character.

To set this feature:

1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.

2. Scan either the enable or disable bar code below. You’ll need to

cover any unused bar codes on this and the facing page to ensure
that the scanner reads only the bar code you intend to scan.

3. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH

bar code.

I 2 of 5 CHECK CHARACTER CALCULATION = DISABLE

I 2 of 5 CHECK CHARACTER CALCULATION = ENABLE

NOTE

If check character calculation is disabled, the risk is increased that a mis-
read can occur. When disabled, any check characters in a bar code are
treated as data characters.
