Check character must be included in label data.

Label length including check character and excluding prefix char-
acter must meet requirements imposed by the main scanner's
fixed or variable label length control for this symbology type.

Prefix must be an ASCII character '%'.

Start stop character sets must meet the matching requirement set
forth by the scanner configuration item Codabar Start Stop Char-
acter Match
.

Start stop character sets must be of the form ABCD/ABCD and
must be included in the label.

Example: '%s$99.95s' (the lower case ‘s’ at each end of the exam-
ple is a placeholder for the start stop character set).

Code 128

Prefix must be an ASCII character '#'.

Label length excluding prefix character must meet requirements
imposed by the main scanner's fixed or variable label length con-
trol for this symbology type.

Function characters may be transmitted as a hexadecimal value
8x. Where x correlates to function characters 1 thru 4 as follows:

x80 = function code 1

x81 = function code 2

x82 = function code 3

x83 = function code 4

For Code 128 programming labels the format is of the general
form '#/82nnnnn/r ' - /82 is hexadecimal 82 and /r is carriage
return.

Example: '#Code_128.Test'.
