Bar Code Definition
The sequence used to define a horizontal bar code is
^BNxccc...c^G
^B
Two Character Sequence Identifier for
Horizontal Bar Code Definition.
N
Reserved Parameter.
x
Bar Code Type.
“a”
= Code 39 1:1:2:2 Ratio
“b”
= Code 39 1:1:3:3 Ratio
“c”
= Code 39 1:2:4:5 Ratio
“d”
= Code 39 LOGMAR Standard Density
“e”
= Code 39 LOGMAR Medium Density
“f”
= Code 39 LOGMAR Low Density
“g”
= 2-of-5 1:1:3:X Ratio
“h”
= 2-of-5 1:2:3:X Ratio
“i”
= Interleaved 2-of-5 BS Code 1:1:3:3 Ratio
“j”
= Interleaved 2-of-5 BS Code 1:2:4:5 Ratio
“k”
= Interleaved 2-of-5 BS Code 1.5:1.5:4.5:4.5 Ratio
“l”
= Interleaved 2-of-5 BS Code 2:2:6:6 Ratio
“m”
= Interleaved 2-of-5 C Code 1:1:2:2 Ratio
“n”
= Interleaved 2-of-5 C Code 1:1:2.5:2.5 Ratio
“o”
= Interleaved 2-of-5 C Code 1.5:1.5:3.5:3.5 Ratio
“p”
= Interleaved 2-of-5 C Code2:2:4.5:4.5 Ratio
ccc...c
Characters to be Bar Coded.
^G
Sequence Terminator.
Required to signal end of character data.
The width of a defined bar code is predetermined by the definition of the bar code type. The width of
all bars and spaces is automatically set.
Example:
The following sequence defines a Code 39 LOGMAR bar code of standard density. The characters
“12345” are encoded in the bar code.
^BNd12345^G^-
Example:
The same character data is represented below in a low density LOGMAR bar code.
^BNf12345^G^-
