OCR Check Character

You may want to print and verify a check character in order to enhance the
security of your OCR application. The IT4620 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 IT4620 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 (

page 9-15

). 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:

01234569

and the output would be: 0123456

OCR Modulo 10 Check Character

Scan this symbol to program the OCR template for a simple modulo 10
checksum of the digits 0 through 9.
