Maximum Host-Transmitted Message Length
Specifies the maximum number of data characters allowed in messages
transmitted to the host.
To set the Maximum Host-Transmitted Message Length:
1. Scan the SWITCH barcode.
2. Scan the barcode, SET MAXIMUM HOST-TRANSMITTED
MESSAGE LENGTH below. You’ll need to cover any unused bar-
codes on this and the facing page to ensur
e that the scanner reads
only the barcode you intend to scan.
3. Scan the appropriate digits from the keypad in
Appendix C that
represent the desired maximum host-transmi
tted message length.
The selectable range is 0-249 data characters. (Labels that are lon-
ger than this length are not read.) Pad all single and double digit
numbers with leading
zeroes to yield a three-digit entry (000-
249).
NOTE
If this configuration item is set to 0 (000), there is no
general length limit
imposed on data being transmitted to the host.
4. The scanner will automatically exit Programming Mode when the
appropriate amount of digits have been scanned
