Code 128

ISBT 128 Concatenation

The use of ISBT formats requires a paid license. The ISBT 128

Application Specification describes 1) the critical data elements

for labeling blood products, 2) the current recommendation to use

Code 128 due to its high degree of security and its

space-efficient design, 3) a variation of Code 128 that supports

concatenation of neighboring symbols, and 4) the standard layout

for bar codes on a blood product label. Use the bar codes below to

turn concatenation on or off. Default = Off.

Message Length

Scan the bar codes below to change the message length. Minimum

and Maximum

lengths = 0-80. Minimum Default = 0, Maximum

Default = 80.

Code Page

Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If

the data received does not display with the proper characters, it

may be because the bar code being scanned was created using a

code page that is different from the one the host program is

expecting. If this is the case, scan the bar code below, select the

code page with which the bar codes were created, and scan the

value and the Save The data characters should then appear

properly. Default = 2.
