Each data character is composed of five elements, either five bars or five spaces. Of these five elements, two are wide and three are narrow. Each digit has its own unique two-out-of-five arrangement. A complete Interleaved 2 of 5 symbol consists of the following: • The start code (two narrow bars and two narrow spaces) • The data characters • The stop code (one wide bar, a narrow space, and a narrow bar) For general-purpose, freeform numeric data, this bar code is the most efficient code available. Interleaved 2 of 5 has no built-in checksum. Interleaved Y Y Y Y Y Y Y 2 of 5 with check digit Interleaved 2 of 5 optionally allows for a weighted Modulo 10 check character in cases where data security is important.
