Data Matrix Length 1, Length 2 Programming Instructions
If Data Matrix Length Control is set to Fixed-Length decoding, this feature specifies Data
Matrix first fixed length. If Data Matrix Length Control is set to Variable-Length decoding, this
feature specifies the minimum label length.
NOTE
For Data Matrix bar codes, only the data characters are included in
the length calculations.
To set this feature:
1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT Programming Mode bar code.
2. Scan the barcode,
Set Data Matrix Length 1or Set Data Matrix Length 2 below. You’ll
need to cover any unused barcodes on this and
the facing page to ensure that the scanner
reads only the bar code you intend to scan.
3. Scan the appropriate digits from the
Keypad in Appendix C that represent the desired
label length. The selectable range for this option is 00
01 to 3116. Pad all numbers with
leading zeros to yield a four-digit entry (0001-3116).
4. Complete the programming sequence by scanning
the ENTER/EXIT Programming
Mode bar code.
