Weighting Options

By default, the check character computation is unweighted. It is

possible to use one of two weighted modulo 10 schemes.

Weighting is often used to detect if two neighboring characters are

transposed, a common error when an operator keys in data.

Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character

Starting with the check character and working backward through

the message, the imager applies a multiplier of 1, then 3, then 1,

then 3, and so on. This is the checking scheme used in many
EAN•UCC symbologies, including U.P.C. and Interleaved 2 of 5

(when a check digit is invoked). To apply this weighting scheme,

set the OCR check character to “0123456789x3x1” or scan the

following symbol:

Example: Scan the Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character symbol.

Also enter the OCR template: dddddddc
