Set Lengths for MSI
Parameter # 30, 31
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 MSI to any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a
specific range. The default is 4 to 55.
•
One Discrete Length - Select this option to decode only MSI symbols containing a selected length.
Select the length using the numeric bar codes in Appendix D, NUMERIC BAR CODES. For example, to
decode only MSI symbols with 14 characters, scan MSI - One Discrete Length, then scan 1 followed by
4. To correct an error or to change the selection, scan Cancel on page D-3.
•
Two Discrete Lengths - Select this option to decode only MSI symbols containing either of two
selected lengths. Select lengths using the numeric bar codes in Appendix D, NUMERIC BAR CODES.
For example, to decode only MSI symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, select MSI - Two
Discrete Lengths, then scan 0, 2, 1, and then 4. To correct an error or to change the selection,
scan Cancel on page D-3.
•
Length Within Range - Select this option to decode a MSI symbol with a specific length range.
Select lengths using numeric bar codes in Appendix D, NUMERIC BAR CODES. For example, to
decode MSI symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, first scan MSI - 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 D-3.
