6.3.1 Readable barcodes
Barcodes must conform to the standards set out by DIN EN 1635 (test specifications for
barcode symbols), ANSI X 3.182-1990 (barcode printing quality) and ISO/IEC 15416.
• 2 of 5 interleaved (DIN EN 801, ISO/IEC 16390)
• Codabar (DIN EN 798)
• Code 39 Full ASCI
• Code 39 (DIN EN 800, ISO/IEC 16388)
• Code 128 (DIN EN 799, ISO/IEC 15417)
• EAN128 (GS1-128, ISO/IEC 15417 (15417), ANS MH10.8.2 and GS1 General
Specification)
Ratio: 2.25:1 to 3:1 (not applicable to Code 128)
Other barcodes available upon request.
6.3.2 The definition of readable barcodes
The barcodes (type, length, check digit) are configured using the system software. Up to six
different codes can be set and read within a single configuration. All barcodes must be
defined either with or without a check digit. The use of check digits can reduce the rate of
read errors.
NOTICE
Roche PVT accepts no liability for read errors resulting from missing check digits, poor quality
labels or insufficient maintenance.
6.3.3 Calculating the barcode check digit
• 2 of 5 interleaved: Modulo 10
• Codabar: Modulo 16
• Code 39: Modulo 43
