Code 93 Set Length 2
This feature specifies one of the bar code lengths for Code 93 Length Con-
trol. 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 characte
rs. The length does not include 
start/stop characters. The length can be set from 1 to 50 characters. A set-
ting of 0 specifies to ignore this length (only one fixed length).
Table 21 provides examples for setting Length 2. See page 290 for detailed 
instructions on setting this feature.
