Convert I 2 of 5 to EAN-13
A successful bar code conversion requires the following to be true:
• Interleaved 2 of 5 scanning is enabled.
• One of the I 2 of 5 lengths is set to 14.
• The bar code has a leading zero.
• The bar code has a valid EAN-13 check digit.
When enabled, the parameter converts a 14 character Interleaved 2 of 5 bar code into EAN-13 and transmits it to the
host as EAN-13.
Set this parameter by scanning either of the bar codes shown below.
Set Lengths for I 2 of 5
L1 Default: 14
L2 Default: 14
Lengths for I 2 of 5 may be set for:
• any length,
• one or two discrete lengths,
• or lengths within a specific range.
The length of a code refers to the number of characters, including check digits, the code contains. When settings
lengths, single digit numbers must always be preceded by a leading zero.
See the table titled ASCII Character Equivalents (page 9-2).
One Discrete Length (Parameter L1)
This option decodes only those codes containing a selected length. For example, when you want to decode I 2 of
5 symbols containing only 14 characters, scan the “I 2 of 5 One Discrete Length” bar code and then the “1” and “4”
bar codes using the Keypad Number Symbols (page 4-72).
To begin setting one discrete length, scan this “I 2 of 5 One Discrete Length” bar code:
Next, scan two numeric bar codes that correspond to the desired value. Single digit numbers must have a leading
zero. If you wish to change your number selection, scan Cancel on the Keypad Number Symbols page.
