Message Length
The message length selection is used to set the valid reading length of the bar
code. If the data length of the scanned bar code doesn’t match the valid reading
length, the scanner will issue an error beep. You may wish to set the same value
for minimum and maximum length to force the scanner to read fixed length bar
code data. This helps reduce the chances of a misread.
EXAMPLE:Decode only those bar codes with a count of 9-20 characters.
Min. length = 09 Max. length = 20
EXAMPLE:Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.
Min. length = 15 Max. length = 15
For a value other than the minimum and maximum message length defaults,
scan the bar codes below, then scan the 2-digit value and Save bar codes on the
Programming Chart inside the back cover. Minimum and Maximum
lengths = 2-80.
Note: If you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning Save),
scan Discard on the back cover, scan the Minimum or Maximum bar
code, scan the correct digits, and Save again.
Strict Decoding
When Strict Decoding is used, the scanner only reads bar codes that are close
to spec. This reduces the number of misreads, but also reduces the tolerance
for bar codes that are slightly out of spec.
Minimum (Default =4)
Maximum (Default =80)
