Set Length 2
This feature allows you to set one of the barcode lengths for the specified symbology. Length 2
is the maximum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the second fixed length if in Fixed
Length Mode. See the page for the specific symbology for parameters.
The length that can
be set varies depending on the symbology. A setting of
0 specifies to ignore
this length (only one fixed length).
Follow these instructions to set this feature:
1. Determine the desired character length (from 1 to 50 — or 0 to
ignore this length). Pad
the number with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20,
etc.
2. Go to the Set Length page for your selected symbology and scan the ENTER/EXIT PRO-
GRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.
3. Scan the barcode to SELECT LENGTH 2 SET
TING for y
our selected symbology.
4. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D, Keypad that represent
the length setting which was determined in the s
teps ab
ove. You will hear a two-beep indi-
cation after the last character.
If you make a mistake, before the last character scan the CANCEL barcode
to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the
beginning.
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming
Mode.
This completes the procedure.
