UID Format Verification

UID policy

The Department of Defense defines the UID number as:
•

The set of data for tangible assets that is globally unique
and unambiguous, ensures data integrity and data quality
throughout life, and supports multi-faced business
applications and users.

The UID applies to:

•

Items >/= $5,000

•

Items < $5,000 as directed by requiring activity

•

Subassemblies, components and embedded items

•

Commonly accepted commercial marks

Sample UID:

•

Symbol contrast – lets the user know if contrast settings are
less than acceptable.

(12V)194532636

(1P)1234

(S)786950

UID number format

Example of UID number constructed by an imager:

Encoded Data:
[)>{RS}DD{GS}CAG987654{GS}SERMKLJHUIYD{RS}{EOT}

Constructed UID Number:
D987654MKLJHUIYD

Eliminates the need for custom programming.

UID mode features
•

The MS-Q’s UID mode provides the following features:

UID-Only Enabled

Allows the MS-Q to read UID data strings encoded on ECC 200 Data Matrix symbol and to send
the UID numbers to the hose computer. The imager will not read any other symbol data when UID
is enabled.

UID-Only Enabled with
Error Messaging

Allows the MS-Q to recognize and decode only UID symbols. In addition, the
imager will send an error message to the host if the UID format is incorrect.

UID Enabled with
Pass Through

UID Enabled with
Error Messaging
and Pass
Through

Allows both UID-encoded symbols and non-UID
symbols to be decoded and sent to the host.

Allows the MS-Q to decode UID symbols and non-UID
symbols, and to provide error messages if UID format is
incorrect.

All of these formats can be used

Hardware solutions are available that can construct the UID
number from any of these identifiers

AIs

DIs

READER

UID Number

TEIs

UID format verification
•

The MS-Q provides suppliers with UID format verification
•

Software enables the DoD supplier to scan their UID symbols and
verify that the information is in the correct format:

•

If the format is incorrect, the MS-Q will generate an error
message, stating the symbol is a bad UID symbol and the
reason why it violated the specification.
•

Error Messaging covers the following:
–
–
–
–
–
–

Invalid preamble
Invalid format
Invalid AI
Invalid DI
Invalid TEI
Spaces

–
–
–
–
–
–

Lower case characters
Invalid characters
UID too long
Part number too long
Serial number too long
EID number too long

MS-Q works throughout the DoD supply chain

If you would like further information about UID or direct part
marking, we recommend you view the additional seminars in
the DPMI series, such as Factors that Determine Symbol
Readability.
