Set Lengths for Discrete 2 of 5
L1 = Parameter # 20
SSI # 14h
L2 = Parameter # 21
SSI # 15h
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 default is Length Within Range: 1 to 55.
Scan one of the following barcodes to select a length option:
• One Discrete Length - Decode only D 2 of 5 symbols containing a selected length. Select the length using
the barcodes in Numeric Barcodes. For example, to decode only D 2 of 5 symbols with 14 characters,
scan D 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length, and then scan 1, 4. To correct an error or change the selection,
scan Cancel on page 426.
• Two Discrete Lengths - Decode only D 2 of 5 symbols containing either of two lengths. Select lengths
using the barcodes in Numeric Barcodes. For example, to decode only D 2 of 5 symbols containing either
2 or 14 characters, scan D 2 of 5 - Two Discrete Lengths, and then scan 0, 2, 1, 4. To correct an
error or change the selection, scan Cancel on page 426.
• Length Within Range - Decode D 2 of 5 symbols with a specific length range. Select lengths using
the barcodes in Numeric Barcodes. For example, to decode D 2 of 5 symbols containing between 4
and 12 characters, scan D 2 of 5 - Length Within Range, and then scan 0, 4, 1, 2. To correct an error or
change the selection, scan Cancel on page 426.
• Any Length - Decode D 2 of 5 symbols containing any number of characters within the scanner’s
capability.
NOTE: When setting lengths, enter a leading zero for single digit numbers.
