GS1 Logistic Label This special Start Character differentiates GS1-128 Bar Code Symbols from the more generalised Code 128 Symbols. The Function 1 Symbol Character (FNC1) is a symbology element used to form the double start pattern of a GS1-128 Bar Code Symbol. It is also used to separate certain concatenated Element Strings, dependent on their positioning in the bar code symbol. • Following the start character: This double start pattern (start character + FNC1) is reserved for GS1 System applications worldwide. This makes it possible to distinguish GS1-128 bar code symbols from other non-standard bar code symbols. This FNC1 is encoded in the bar code. • As a separator: all elements strings not of pre-defined length must be followed by a Function 1 Symbol Character (FNC1) separator when followed by another element string in a single bar code symbol. An FNC1 is not required at the end of the last element string represented in a GS1-128 bar code symbol. This FNC1 corresponds to ASCII character 29 (). 38 The Application Identifiers AI is the official abbreviation for “application identifier“ Each Application Identifier is a numeric code of two or more characters that uniquely defines its format and meaning. Each data translated in GS1-128 has to have an Application Identifier, which determines the data, its format and its structure. The symbol check character The symbol generating software automatically calculates the symbol check character. The Symbol Check Character shall be positioned immediately following the final data or special character and before the Stop Character. Note: The Symbol Check Character shall not be shown in the Human Readable Interpretation. Example of a GS1-128 symbol using AI (00) – Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC).

GS1 Logistic Label 1.2 Dimensional Requirements Please see the chapter 6.4. For further information see the GS1 General Specification V.8. (See Section 5.4.4 Please contact your local GS1, www.gs1.org > contact) and the guideline European Logistic Label (See www.gs1.eu > download) 1.3 Quality test To verify whether a symbol meets the specifications in the GS1 System, it shall be tested using the specification defined in ISO/IEC 15416, which details the conditions under which measurements should be made. The specification defines methods of determining an overall quality grade based on the attributes of the bar code symbol and determining its conformity with the system. The test stages included in all verification are: 1. Check that the bar code has been put together correctly. 39 2. Bar code symbol test to examine the X-dimension, ratio and symbol height. 3. Quality test after simulated transport strains. 4. Visual control of the layout and information content against the specifications. In some cases, it may be recommended to perform the tests for different goods handling environments. In this context it must be stated that data and good printing quality are of high importance. Any faulty data or label that cannot be scanned is as good as no label and may lead to considerable irritation. There is no relevant legislation on this issue but usually any negligence is penalised by the market. GS1 Member Organisation offer quality checks and services – Please contact your local GS1 organisation www.gs1.org > contact 1.4 Data in bar code GS1-128 with Application Identifier in the logistic label The GS1-128 is the bar code used for the GS1 Logistic Label. The full technical specification are published in the GS1 General Specifications. The use of attribute information on logistic units is optional. However, when used, attribute information should be processed with the SSCC that identifies the logistic unit. 1.4.1 The Serial Shipping Container Code – SSCC (AI 00) The SSCC is the GS1 unique identification number specifically developed for the identification of logistic units – items of any composition such as pallets, containers and cases – going through the supply chain. SSCC is a subset of ISO/IEC 15459 standard. © GS1 2008
