The present invention relates to a code bearer, a data-coding device and a method for coding data onto a bearer, provided for manual reading of a first code followed by an input of the first code to a machine, said bearer comprising at least one numerical data field comprising the first code as a series of multiple figures. A second code is generically provided specifying the numerical data field with the first code through modulo arithmetic with a predetermined base, represented by at least one symbol accomplished through compressing each series of multiple figures in the at least one data field. The symbols are concatenated in a predetermined pattern for entering into the machine, wherein enhanced readability of the first code through the symbol pattern applied for the first code is accomplished, thus providing an aid for facilitated, protected and error-minimized input of data belonging to the first code into the machine/apparatus.
A code bearer provided for manual reading of a first code followed by an input of the first code to a machine, said bearer comprising at least one numerical data field comprising the first code as a series of multiple figures, characterized in that it is provided a second code generically specifying the numerical data field with the first code through modulo arithmetic with a predetermined base, represented by at least one symbol accomplished through compressing each series of multiple figures in the at least one data field into the at least one symbol representing the series of multiple figures through the utilized base in the modulo arithmetic, and concatenating said symbols in a predetermined pattern for entering into the machine, wherein enhanced readability of the first code through the symbol pattern applied for the first code is accomplished, thus providing an aid for facilitated, protected and error-minimized input of data connected to the first code into the machine.
