Genesys advises encoding UUI as ASCII rather than hex when the data uses extended ASCII characters 128-255, because hex causes problems with those characters.

Checked 2026-10-02

If your UUI data must use characters from the extended ASCII character set (character 128-255), encode your UUI data using ASCII format.
