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.
3-1-3-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character
Starting with the check character and working backward through the message, the imager applies a mul-
tiplier of 1, then 3, then 1, then 3, and so on. This is the checking scheme used in many EAN•UCC sym-
bologies, 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 3-1-3-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character symbol. Also enter the OCR template:
Then scan the string below:
The reader performs the check character computation below:
(0 x 3 + 1 x 1 + 2 x 3 + 3 x 1 + 4 x 3 + 5 x 1 + 6 x 3 + 5 x 1) modulo 10 = 0
Since the result is zero, the message is considered to be valid, so the reader outputs the message:
0123456
2-1-2-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character
Starting with the check character and working backward through the message, the imager applies a mul-
tiplier of 1, then 2, then 1, then 2, and so on. When the result of the multiplication is greater than 9, add
both digits to the running sum. This is often referred to as the LUHN formula. One common application
of the LUHN formula is validate credit card numbers. This is the modulo 10 checking scheme used in
MSI Code and in Code 32 Pharmaceutical (PARAF). To apply this weighting scheme, set the OCR
check character to "0123456789x2x1" or scan the following symbol:
Example: Scan the 2-1-2-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character symbol. Also enter the OCR template:
