I would check first - For that amount of info, I think 3 of 9 will work the same
as 128 and they should be able to scan 3 of 9 if only 128 in enabled on their
scanners (even though it is unlikely to only enable 128). Every scanner I have
ever used scan 3 of 9 and 128 by default.

Gotcha. OK, they are definitely separate fields and would be separate scans. I
