Set Lengths for Interleaved 2 of 5 (continued)
Length Within Range - This option allows the scanner to decode an I 2 of 5 symbol with a specific length
range. The length range is selected from numeric bar codes in
Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes.
For example,
to decode I 2 of 5 symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, first scan I 2 of 5 - Length Within Range.
Then scan 0, 4, 1, and 2 (insert a leading zero for single digit numbers). In case of an error, or to change the
selection, scan Cancel on
I 2 of 5 - Length Within Range
Any Length - This option allows the scanner to decode I 2 of 5 symbols containing any number of characters
within the scanner capability.
I 2 of 5 - Any Length
NOTE
Due to the construction of the I 2 of 5 symbology, it is possible for a scan line covering only a portion of the
code to be interpreted as a complete scan, yielding less data than is actually encoded in the bar code. To
prevent this from happening, select specific lengths (I 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length - Two Discrete
Lengths) for I 2 of 5 applications.
