UCC 128 Shipping Container Code
The Mod 10 Check digit is calculated the same as the Interleaved 2 of 5
example in Appendix G. It is the data length as well as the MOD 10 check
digit that distinguishes the UCC Serial Shipping Container Code from other
UCC /EAN 128 bar codes.
UCC/EAN 128 is enabled by scanning the appropriate bar codes on the RF
Laser Reader Setup Menu. If UCC/EAN 128 is enabled, you will be able to
read both standard Code 128 bar codes as well as the UCC/EAN 128 bar codes
with the Function 1 character and the Mod 10 check character.
The UCC 128 specification is used extensively by the retail industry. If you
have a requirement for a UCC 128 Serial Shipping Container bar code, be
sure to follow the specification as closely as possible as many vendors will
impose fines for non-conformance. For more information on UCC/EAN 128,
