Set Lengths for Discrete 2 of 5

L1 Default:1 Discrete Length: 12

L2 Default : 12

Lengths for D 2 of 5 may be set for:

•any length,

•one or two discrete lengths,

•or lengths within a specific range.

The length of a code refers to the number of characters, including check digits, the code contains.

See the table titled ASCII Character Equivalents (page 9-2).

One Discrete Length (Parameter L1)

This option decodes only those codes containing a selected length. For example, when you want to scan only D 2 of 5 symbols containing 14 characters, scan the “D 2 of 5 One Discrete Length” bar code and then “1” and “4” bar codes using the bar codes on the Keypad Number Symbols (page 4-72)page.

To begin setting one discrete length, scan this bar code:

Next, scan two numeric bar codes that correspond to the desired value. Single digit numbers must have a leading zero. If you wish to change your number selection, scan Cancel on the Keypad Number Symbols page.
