— 5. Bar code and enlarged character function —

• Modulus 11

a. Data characters are weighed from the right to the left, as,

example,1, 2, ..., 10, 1, 2 ... 10, 1, 2 and so forth. The sum of
the data character values is determined. (The symbol ‘-’ has a
character value of 10.)

b. A character having a character value equal to the remainder of

dividing the value determined in step a by 11 is the first check
character (C).

c. Data characters are weighed from the right to the left,

beginning with C, as, for example, 1, 2, ..., 9, 1, 2 ... , 9, 1, 2
and so forth. The sum of the data character values is
determined.

d. The character with a character value equal to the remainder of

dividing the value determined in step c by 11 is the second
check character (K).

• Modulus 16

a. The sum of the all characters including start and stop

characters values is determined. The following table shows the
conversion of character into value.

b. The remainder X of deviding the value determined in step a

by 16 is determined. The remainder Y of subtracting the
remainder X from 16 is determined.

c. Convert the remainder Y into the character Z according to the

conversion table in a. The character Z is the check character.

• Modulus 43

a. The sum of the data character values is determined.
b. The character with a character value equal to the remainder of

dividing the value determined in step a by 43 is the check
