These bar codes are used to enable/disable a special transmit mode as outlined in 
section 3.5.2 of the ISBT-128 Specification.  This output method allows the user to 
confirm independently the accuracy of the Code-128 check digit.

³138406
 
Disable ISBT Special Transmit 
 
These bar codes can be used to disable the transmission of the ISBT Code 128 
data identifiers.  When this option is selected, the first two data characters are 
removed from the data stream (ID characters) unless the ISBT bar code scanned 
contains the Donation Identification Number identifiers.  In this instance only the 
first ID character is removed from the Donation ID Number.  The second is 
regarded as normal data.

These bar codes are used to convert and transmit the Mode 37, 2 check digit from 
the flag digits of the Donation Identification Number provided the check digit is 
contained in the flag digits.  Transmission of the Donation Identification number 
will be the same except for the last two digits, which are converted into a single 
check sum character.
