Set Lengths for Codabar
The length of a code refers to the number of characters (i.e., human readable characters), including check digit(s)
the code contains. Lengths for Codabar may be set for any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a
specific range.
One Discrete Length - This option allows the scanner to decode only those Codabar symbols containing a
selected length. Lengths are selected from the numeric bar codes in
Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes . For
example, to decode only Codabar symbols with 14 characters, scan Codabar - One Discrete Length, then scan 1
followed by 4. In case of an error, or to change the selection, scan Cancel on
page D-3 .
Codabar - One Discrete Length
Two Discrete Lengths - This option allows the scanner to decode only those Codabar symbols containing
either of two selected lengths. Lengths are selected from the numeric bar codes in
Appendix D, Numeric Bar
Codes . For example, to decode only those Codabar symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, select Codabar
- Two Discrete Lengths, then scan 0, 2, 1, and then 4. In case of an error, or to change the selection, scan
Cancel on
page D-3 .
Codabar - Two Discrete Lengths
Length Within Range - This option allows the scanner to decode a Codabar 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 Codabar symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, first scan Codabar - 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
page D-3 .
