Parity - Motorola Symbol PL4507 Integration Manual

Parity

A parity check bit is the most significant bit of each ASCII coded character. Select the parity type according to host
device requirements.
•
Select Odd parity to set the parity bit value to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an odd number of 1 bits
are contained in the coded character.
•
Select Even parity to set the parity bit value to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an even number of 1 bits
are contained in the coded character.
•
Select None when no parity bit is required.
