SYMBOLOGIES 12 - 95
Set Lengths for Discrete 2 of 5
SSI # L1 = 14h, L2 = 15h
Parameter # L1 = 20, L2 = 21
The length of a code refers to the number of characters (i.e., human readable characters), including check
digit(s) the code contains. Set lengths for D 2 of 5 to any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a
specific range. The supported range for Discrete 2 of 5 lengths is 0 - 55; the default range is 1 - 55.
Options:
•
D 2 of 5 One Discrete Length - Select this option to decode only D 2 of 5 symbols containing a selected
length. Select the length using the numeric bar codes in Appendix G, NUMERIC BAR CODES. For
example, to decode only D 2 of 5 symbols with 14
characters, scan D 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length,
then scan 1 followed by 4. To correct an error or to change the selection, scan Cancel on page G-10.
•
D 2 of 5 Two Discrete Lengths - Select this option to decode only D 2 of 5 symbols containing either
of two selected lengths. Select lengths using the numeric bar codes in Appendix G, NUMERIC BAR
CODES. For example, to decode only D 2 of 5 symbols contai
ning either 2 or 14 characters, select D 2
of 5 - Two Discrete Lengths, then scan 0, 2, 1, and th
en 4. To correct an error or to change the
selection, scan Cancel on page G-10.
•
D 2 of 5 Length Within Range - Select this option to decode a D 2 of 5 symbol with a specific length
range. Select lengths using numeric bar codes in Appendix G, NUMERIC BAR CODES. For example,
to decode
D 2 of 5 symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, first scan D 2 of 5 -
Length
Within Range. Then scan 0, 4, 1, and 2 (enter a leading zero for single digit numbers). To correct an
error or change the selection, scan Cancel on page G-10.
•
*D 2 of 5 Any Length - Scan this option to decode D 2 of 5 symbols containing any number of characters
within the scanner’s capability.
D 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length
NOTE Due to the construction of the D 2 of 5 symbology, it is possible for a scan line covering only a portion of
the code to transmit as a complete scan, yielding less data than is encoded in the bar code. To prevent
this, select specific lengths (D 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length, Two Discrete Lengths) for D 2 of 5
applications.
