CAUTION
1 Codes with*in the remarks column are ignored in the significant information
section.
2 Codes with ? in the remarks column cause an alarm in the significant information
section but are registered in memory.
3 Codes not in this table are ignored if their parity is correct.
4 Codes with incorrect parity cause the TH alarm. But they are ignored without
generating the TH alarm when they are in the comment section.
5 A character with all eight holes punched is ignored and does not generate TH alarm
in EIA code.
