CHAPTER 8 BAR CODE CONTROL - 9 

• 

When Code 128 Set A, Set B, or Set C is selected with the parameter “t12” or “12,” “t13” or “T13,” or “t14” or 

“T14” respectively:   

Code sets A, B and C are individually selectable.  Set A encodes characters in the range Hex 00 to 5F.  Set 
B encodes characters in the range Hex 20 to 7F.  Set C encodes numeric pairs in the range 00 to 99.   

-  Switching is allowed between the code sets by sending %A, %B, or %C.   

-  FNC 1, 2, 3, and 4 are produced with %1, %2, %3, and %4.   

-  The SHIFT code, %S, allows temporary switching (for 1 character only) between  set A and set B and 

vice versa.   

-    To print the  “%” character,  it must be sent twice.

3.15.  Expanded Character Data Start 

n = “l” or “L” 

Data that follows “l” or “L” is read in as expanded character data (or labeling data).  Expanded character data 
must end with the “ \ ” code (5CH), which also terminates this command.  To print the '\' character, you must 
input '\\'.
