Clarence Bush Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Want to know if anyone did this before. For example I want to convert “hellobarcode” into a long binary string. Which should contain the start and stop character, encoding data and checksum? I am looking for the easiest way to make this happen. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Saragani Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 I'm not sure what exactly you mean. Do you want to send the "hellobarcode" using Unitronics PCOM (with the STX, ETX and Checksum)? In that case, the PLC would not understand what you want from him (Because there isn't any command named hellobarcode. Please tell us exactly what you mean and what you want, and for what purpose.

Kirk Bush Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 If you want to convert the text into binary string, you may need to buy the Code 128 specifications, which has all the details that you need. An easiest method to create this barcode symbole is to use a barcode creation control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayY Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Besides barcode generator, barcode font may be your another choice. It performs as other normal font such as Times New Roman. Easy to handle stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
