Code 128 Maximum Label Length

This feature specifies the maximum allowable length of a Code 128 label.
To set this feature:
1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.
2. Scan the bar code, SET CODE 128 MAXIMUM LABEL LENGTH
below. You’ll need to cover any unused bar codes on this and the fac-
ing 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 rep-
resent the desired maximum label length. The selectable range for
this option is 01 to 80. Pad all single digit numbers with a leading
zero to yield a two-digit entry (01-80).
4. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
bar code.
SET CODE 128 MAXIMUM LABEL LENGTH
NOTE
Length in this case includes function characteres and data characters, but
does not include function code change or check character. This feature
applies when Code 128 Length Control is set to variable-length decoding.
Maximum label length should be greater than or equal to minimum label
length.
