MSI/Plessey Maximum Label Length

This feature specifies the maximum allowable length of an MSI/Plessey label.

 

Length in this case includes check and data characters, but does not

 

include start, stop or full ASCII shift characters. This feature applies when

 

MSI/Plessey Length Control is set to variable-length decoding.

NOTE

Maximum label length should be greater than or equal to minimum label

length.

 

To set this feature:

1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.

2. Scan the bar code, SET MSI/PLESSEY MAXIMUM LABEL LENGTH below. You’ll need to cover any unused bar codes on this and the facing page to ensure that the scanner reads only the bar code you intend to scan.

3. Scan the appropriate digits from the keypad in Appendix C that represent the desired maximum label length. The selectable range for this option is 4 to 16. Pad all single digit numbers with a leading zero to yield a two-digit entry (04-16).

4. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH bar code.
