A combination of bar code characters (including start and stop characters, quiet zones, data characters and check characters) required by a particular symbology that forms a complete, scannable entity.
The combination of symbol characters and features required by a particular symbology, including quiet zones, start and stop characters, data characters, check characters and other auxiliary patterns, that together form a complete scannable entity (see symbol).
A specific pattern made of lines (or bars) and spaces of varying width, which represent alpha and/or numeric data in machine-readable form. The most general format for a bar code consists of a lead margin, a start character, and a trailing margin.
A graphic code, either printed or photographically reproduced, composed of parallel bars and spaces of various widths (linear bar code) or dots and spaces arranged in an array (2 dimensional bar code). A linear bar code symbol contains a leading quiet zone, a start character, one or more data characters (including in some cases a check character), a stop character, and a trailing quiet zone.
A set of characters and marks including start / stop character, quite zones, data characters, and check characters required by a particular symbology, that forms a complete scannable element.
A printed or photographically reproduced bar code that contains a quiet zone, a start character, one or more data characters, a stop character, and a trailing quiet zone. The data characters may include a check character.
a graphic image, either printed or photographically reproduced, composed of a series of vertical parallel bars and spaces of varying widths. A bar code symbol contains a leading quiet zone, a start character, one or more data characters (i.e., check character), a stop character, and a trailing quiet zone.
the combination of characters required by a particular symbology that makes up a scan able entity.
A sequence of rectangular shapes and intervening spaces used to encode a string of data. A bar code symbol typically consists of five parts: 1-a leading quiet zone, 2-a start character, 3-data character(s) including an optional check character, 4-a stop character and 5-a trailing quiet zone.
