For example, if a Code 39 label containing 2 characters were scanned in Step 3 then only Code 39 labels would be checked for a minimum length of 2 characters. If a second label had been read in Step 3 (immediately following the first), then that particular symbology would have been set to its associated minimum character length.
In a similar manner, the maximum length for selected codes can be established by using the “Enable maximum length for selected codes” (HM) command.

The Z3 command can be used to instruct the scanner to provide a list of its current software settings including prefixes and suffixes.
The scanner can be programmed to transmit a prefix and/or suffix with the decoded data. A Prefix (or a Suffix) is composed of up to 4 characters. The following steps are used to establish a Prefix that will be
Example: To add the alpha character “A” as a Prefix and “B” as a
Suffix to
1.Scan “START/END Programming Mode”
2.Scan N1, representing a Prefix for
3.Scan 0A, representing the alpha character “A”
4.Scan N6, representing a Suffix for
5.Scan 0B, representing the alpha character “B”
6.Scan “START/END Programming Mode”
transmitted with the bar code data:
1.Scan Start
2.Scan the bar code representing the symbology to which you wish to add a Prefix/Suffix
3.Scan the character(s) that will comprise the Prefix/Suffix. Up to four numeric, alpha or control character(s) may be used. Scanning no characters will delete the Prefix/Suffix
4.Scan “STOP” to exit the Programming Mode.
In addition, the scanner can be programmed to transmit a preamble and/or postamble with the decoded data. A Preamble and/or postamble can be composed of up to 8 characters each and will apply to all symbologies. The following steps are used to establish a Preamble and/or postamble that will be transmitted with the bar code data:
1.Scan Start
2.Scan the MZ for preamble or PS for Postamble
3.Scan the character(s) that will comprise the Preamble/Postamble. Up to eight characters may be used. Scanning no characters will delete the Preamble/Postamble.
4.Scan “STOP” to exit the Programming Mode.
