To avoid truncation errors, the scanner can be programmed to only decode bar codes of one specific length, i.e., containing a specific number of digits. It is also possible to program the scanner to only decode bar codes of either of two specific lengths.

To set one or two lengths for all symbologies:

1.Scan “START” to enter the programming mode.

2.Scan “Enable length setting (H1) for all symbologies”.

3.Scan a sample bar code of the desired length.

4.Repeat Step #3, re-scanning the sample bar code length or a different bar code length to get 2 lengths.

5.Scan “END” to exit the programming mode

To set one or two lengths for selected symbologies:

1.Scan “START” to enter the programming mode

2.Scan “Enable length setting (HK) for selected symbologies”.

3.Scan a sample bar code of the desired length #1

4.Repeat Step #3, re-scanning the sample bar code length or a different bar code length to get 2 lengths.

5.Scan “END” to exit the programming mode

“Setting the Number of Digits” can only be applied to Code 39, NW-7, 2 of 5, and MSI/Plessey. WPC, Code 93, IATA, and Code 128 are not affected.

Setting Minimum/Maximum Length

This option modifies the default minimum length table. To use this option, perform the following steps:

1.Scan “START” to enter the programming mode

2.Scan “Enable minimum length for selected codes” (HL)

3.Scan bar codes of the required type and length.

4.Scan “END” to end the programming sequence.
