Modulo 36
1. Add the characters in the string (not including the checksum character).
2. Subtract 36 from the sum obtained above. Continue subtracting 36 until the remainder is less
than 36.
3. Subtract the remainder obtained above from 36. The value obtained is the checksum. Enter
this character in the checksum position.
Digit / Alpha values are defined as follows for modulo 36:
0 – 9 = 0 – 9; A = 10, B = 11, … Z = 25
Pn Default Valid Description
7 0 0 left to right
1 top to bottom
2 right to left
3 bottom to top
Orientation. Decoder reads
OCR fonts in any orientation,
but setting this parameter
correctly can increase
decoding speed.
Examples:
1. To read a combination of 6 alpha and numeric characters use the following template:
aaaaaa
2. To read the same string with a modulo 10 check digit in the 7
th
character position, use the
following template:
aaaaaac
Then enter 0123456789 for parameter 6.
3. To read either a string of 6 alphabetic letters OR a string of 8 numeric digits, use this
template:
lllllltdddddddd
Note the use of the “t” to separate the first template from the second.
4. To read multiple rows of OCR data as shown below:
123450
ABCDEF
Either of the following templates could be used:
ddddddrllllll or aaaaaaraaaaaa
Note the use of the “r” to define the position of the second row.
