6. SYMBOLOGIES
6-2 Message Length Description
You are able to set the valid reading length of some of the bar code
symbologies. You may wish to set the same value for minimum and maximum
length to force the scanner to read fixed length bar code data. This helps
reduce the chances of a misread.
Example: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 9-20 characters.
Min. length = 09Max. length = 20
Example: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.
Min. length = 15Max. length = 15
For a value other than the minimum and maximum message length defaults,
scan the bar codes included in the explanation of the symbology, then scan the
digit value of the message length and Save barcodes on the Programming
Chart inside the back cover of this manual. The minimum and maximum
lengths and the defaults are included with the respective symbologies.
