Scanning the appropriate bar codes on the RF Terminal Setup Menu 
enables 

UCC/EAN 128; or you can use the keypad in the 

PROGRAMMING MODE “Change Setup” option.  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. 

 

If UCC/EAN-128 is enabled on the R/F Terminal reader, all Function 1 
codes are transmitted as ]C1. In addition, should you be reading a 20 
digit Shipping Serial Container code, the Mod 10 check digit is also 
compared with the computed Mod 10 value to give further assurance of 
no substitutions. The UCC/EAN-128 Shipping Serial Container Code is a 
subset of UCC-128 or EAN-128 adopted for voluntary marking of 
shipping boxes with the exact serial number of the box, (used with EDI 
typically to identify a specific boxes contents.  The code consists of the 
following format: 

Start C 

Function Code 1 

2 Digit Qualifier 

7 Digit Data Portion 

1 Digit Mod 10 Check Digit* 

1 Digit Modulus 103 

Stop Code 

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
