Message Length
The message length selection is used to set the valid reading length of the bar code. If the data length of the scanned bar code doesn’t match the valid reading length, the scanner will not read the symbol. You may wish to set the same value for minimum and maximum length to force the scanner to read fixed length bar code data. This helps reduce the chances of a misread.
EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of
Min. length = 09 Max. length = 20
EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.
Min. length = 15 | Max. length = 15 |
Minimum | Maximum |
