To read the three rows below, you would use the template command

ABCD1234.

You may want to print and verify a check character in order to enhance the 
security of your OCR application. The IT4600/4800 can be programmed for 
almost any type of check character.  A number of presets are provided for 
common check character uses (e.g., modulo 10 and modulo 36).

Scan the 

OCR Modulo 10 or OCR Modulo 36 Check Character bar code to 

specify the type of check character used in the OCR strings you’re scanning.  
The imager will then only read OCR character strings with a valid check 
character.  The IT4600/4800 transmits the OCR data without the check character 
data.  You must specify the location of the check character in the template with 
a 

c.

Example: You need to read any combination of seven digits, with a modulo 10 

check character in the eighth position.  The template would be:

dddddddc

To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font.  Scan the 

10 Check Character symbol.  Then scan the Enter OCR Template symbol, 
and scan the 

d from the 

c once.  Scan Save OCR Template (

).  This template will let you 

read any combination of six digits with a correct check character after.  (If the 
check character is invalid, the imager will issue an error beep.)  For example, 
the following string could be scanned:

01234569

and the output would be: 0123456

Scan this symbol to program the OCR template for a simple modulo 10 
checksum of the digits 0 through 9.
