Message Length
The message length selection is used to set the val id readi ng leng th of th e bar co de.
If the data length of the scanned bar code doesn’t match t he va lid read ing len gth, 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 9-20 ch ar acters.
Min. length = 09 Max. length = 20
EXAMPLE:
Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.
Min. length = 15 Max. length = 15
