Plessey Set Length 2
This feature specifies one of the bar code lengths for Plessey Length Control. Length 2 is the 
maximum label length if in 
Variable Length Mode, or the second fixed length if in Fixed 
Length
 Mode. Length includes the bar code’s check, data, and full-ASCII shift characters. The 
length does not include start/stop charac
ters.
The length can be set from 1 to 50 characters. A setting of 0 specifies to ignore this length 
(
only one fixed length).
Table 5 provides examples for setting Length 2. See "Set Length 2" on page 241 for detailed 
instructions on setting this feature.
