Set Lengths for Code 93

The length of a code refers to the number of characters (i.e., human readable characters), including check digit(s)
the code contains. Set lengths for Code 93 for any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a specific
range.

One Discrete Length - This option allows the digital scanner to decode only those Code 93 symbols containing a
selected length. Use the numeric bar codes in

Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes

to select the length. For example,

to decode only Code 93 symbols with 14 characters, scan Code 93 - 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

.

Two Discrete Lengths - This option allows the digital scanner to decode only those Code 93 symbols
containing either of two selected lengths. Use the numeric bar codes in

Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes

to select

lengths. For example, to decode only Code 93 symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, select Code 93 - 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
