HIBC PAS Codablock-F is based on Codablock-F and uses a special check digit (Modulo 43).
Structure
The Single Data Structure Format is +/F*G*DDDDDC1: • +—HIBC Provider Applications Standard Flag • F*—Where Flag (length: 1 or 3) • G*—What Flag (length: 1 or 3) • D—Application Data • C1—Check Digit (Modulo 43) - equal to the Link Character of the second part.
The First Part of the Split data Structure Format is +/1F*G*DDDDC. It is similar to the Single Format but with 1 as prefix and one less position for the application data (D). ("1" indicates the first data structure.)
The Second Part of the Split Data Structure Format is +/2DDDDC1C2: • +/—HIBC Provider Applications Standard Flag • 2—"2" indicates that this is the second data structure • D—Remainder of the Application Data • C1—Link Character (check digit of first part) • C2—Check Digit (Modulo 43)
The combined format is +/F*G1*D1D1D1/G2*D2D2D2C: • +/—HIBC Provider Applications Standard Flag • F*—Where Flag (length: 1 or 3) • G1*—What Flag for D1(length: 1 or 3) • D1—First Application Data • G2*—What Flag for D2(length: 1 or 3) • D2—Second Application Data • C—Check Digit (Modulo 43)
