Interleaved 2 of 5

Usage:
I-2/5 has been popular because it is the most dense symbology for printing numeric characters less than 10 characters in length; however, Microscan does not recommend this symbology for any new applications because of inherent problems such as truncation.
Definition:
A dense, contimuous, self-checking, numeric symbology. Characters are paired together so that each character has five elements, two wide and three narrow, representing numbers 0 through 9, with the bars representing the first character and the interleaved spaces representing the second character. (A check character is highly recommended).
Important: You must set Symbol Length in order to decode I-2/5 symbols, unless Range Mode is enabled.
Serial Cmd:
<K472,status,check character status,check character output status,symbol length #1,symbol length #2,guard bar status,range mode status>
Default:
Enabled
Options:
0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled

Check Character Status (Interleaved 2 of 5)

Usage:
This option is not typically used, but it can be enabled for additional security in applications where the host requires redundant check character verification.
Definition:
An error correcting routine in which the check character character is added.
Serial Cmd:
<K472,status,check character status,check character output status,symbol length #1,symbol length #2,guard bar status,range mode status>
Default:
Disabled
Options:
0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled
