Remarks MaxiCode requires 8 fields of data separated by a LF character, which is
entered as CHR$(10). Regardless of which mode is chosen, all eight fields
must contain valid data and must be present in final in data string, see
table below
F n = Field No, (mode n) = decoded by reader
F 1 (mode 2&3): 5 Characters, numeric (mode 2) or
6 alphanumeric characters (mode3).
F 2 (mode 2): 4 digits [0-9999]
F 3 (mode 2&3): Country code 3 digits [0-999]
F 4 (mode 2&3): Service class, 3 digits [0-999]
F 5 (LPM mode 2,3,4,): User defined message.
F 6 : Mode selector, one digit [2|3|4].
F 7 : Position in structured append, one digit [1-8]
F 8 : Total number of symbols in structure, one digit
[1-8]
F 8 in structured append is the trigger for structured append mode.
If F 8 >1, the two first code word in secondary message will be a pad followed
by position code word. F 8 has higher precedence than F 7 .
If F 7 >1when F 8 = 1, the two first codeword will not signal structured
append.
If F >1, F may be >F without error and structured append codeword will
8 7 8
signal given values.
No of characters: Up to 84 on mode 2 & 3 or up to 138 in mode
4.
Check character: Automatically, Reed-Solomon algorithm.
Data type: ASCII 0-255
