Underscore in bar code code 39 disappear when scanning

enter image description hereI use bar code code 39 extended to create bar code. In my software the code is good. Ex. 607A_QIT002-0004. When I scan the code I received 607A QIT002-0004. The _ have changed for a space. My scanner is in extended mode.

Do you have any idea why the _ is switchin for a space.

Thanks

Is there still a problem with the barcode image creation program, the specified command for it, or the printing tool?

The Honeywell Xenon 1900 GSR-1 barcode scanner. I have here reads as follows.
In both cases, the symbol notification format complies with AIM.

Code39 Full ASCII Disabled
Upper barcode

]A0607A UGS001-0004

Lower barcode

]A0XRF%OINTERFACE

Code39 Full ASCII Enabled
Upper barcode

]A4607A UGS001-0004

Lower barcode

]A4XRF_INTERFACE

In Addition:

"XRF_INTERFACE" of Lower barcode is created/encoded barcode corresponding to underscore.

In the upper bar code "607A UGS001-0004", the character string displayed separately is underscore, but the actual barcode creation/encoding seems to be whitespace.

For example, please try creating a barcode in a mode that prints HRI characters at the same time as the barcode.
Also, please compare the command to generate/print the barcode of "XRF_INTERFACE" with the command to generate/print the barcode of "607A_UGS001-0004".


Note:

By the way, since the response contents have been changed from the original ones, the comments attached are meaningless.

Kunif this is my problem. With Code39 Full ASCII my bar code is generated with an _ but when I read it with any scanner I had on hand, configured for Full ASCII, the _ disappear.
