Set Lengths for Discrete 2 of 5 (Continued)
Length Within Range - This option allows the scanner to decode an D 2 of 5 symbol with a specific length range. The
length range is selected from numeric bar codes beginning on page
Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes.
For example, to
decode D 2 of 5 symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, first scan D 2 of 5 - Length Within Range. Then scan 0, 4, 1,
and 2 (single digit numbers must always be preceded by a leading zero). If an error is made or to change a selection, scan Cancel on
page
.
D 2 of 5 - Length Within Range
Any Length - Scanning this option allows the scanner to decode D 2 of 5 symbols containing any number of characters within the
scanner capability.
Due to the construction of the D 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, it is recommended that specific lengths (D 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length -
Two Discrete Lengths) be selected for D 2 of 5 applications.
