public byte FileIdNumberLowByte { get; set; }
A Byte that indicates the low byte of the file ID number to use when writing Datamatrix symbols. Must be a value greater to or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 254. Default value is 1.
Datamatrix barcodes support the concept of a groups of related symbols. Use the following properties to write a group of related symbols:
GroupTotal - Specifies the total number of Datamatrix symbols in the group specified by GroupNumber. The maximum number of symbols in a group is 16.
GroupNumber - Specifies a group of Datamatrix symbols. The maximum number of symbols in a group is 16. Use this property to specify the order of each barcode in a group so that when you read each barcode's data, you can put the large piece of data back together in the correct order.
FileIdNumberLowByte - Specifies the low byte of the file ID number. The number must range from 1 to 254. Use this as an ID for the group since an image can have multiple groups.
FileIdNumberHighByte - Specifies the high byte of the file ID number. The number must range from 1 to 254. Use this as an ID for the group since an image can have multiple groups.
