UCC/EAN 128 Bar Code Development

["iSeries Consulting" <egarske@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

iSeries Consulting is currently looking for someone to assist in a short
term project to development the algorithm to correctly process a  UCC/EAN
128 Bar Code. Please submit your resume, and hourly rate.


UCC/EAN 128 - Designed to identify a shipping package or shipping container
anywhere in the world, UCC/EAN 128 is an open standard for any industry. It
is a very reliable, secure, space-saving symbology based on Code 128 (see
page 34). A special reserved start code, called Function Code 1 (FNC 1)
ensures that the initial digits are treated as application identifiers
(AIs). This allows scanners to auto discriminate between UCC/EAN-128 and
other bar code symbologies. It is an alphanumeric code. The UCC/EAN 128
symbol is composed of a leading quiet zone, a Code 128 start character A, B,
or C, and FNC 1 character, data (application identifier plus data field), a
symbol check character, a stop character and a trailing quiet zone.
