Check code
This is the BCC (block check code) used to detect errors using horizontal parity. It should be
created so that it targets all of the text data from the start code to the last text character.
The BCC starts from the start code and checks each character in sequence, using the
exclusive OR operation, and replaces the final result with character text. It is normally part of
the calculation program, and is created automatically.
The parity check can be skipped by entering “
” (ASCII code: H2A2A) instead of the BCC.

End code (Terminator)
Messages must always end with a “
