Parity

A parity check bit is the most significant bit of each ASCII coded character. Scan one of the following bar codes to select the parity type according to host device requirements:

• Odd—sets the parity bit value to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that the coded character contains an odd number of 1 bits.
• Even—sets the parity bit value to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that the coded character contains an even number of 1 bits.
• None—No parity bit is required.

Scan one of the following bar codes to select the parity type according to host device requirements. By default, this parameter is set to None.
