Parameter # E7h
Scan the appropriate bar code below to enable or disable adding the prefix character “A” to all Code 32 bar
codes.
Set Lengths for Code 39
Parameter # L1 = 12h, L2 = 13h
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 39 to any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within
a specific range. If Code 39 Full ASCII is enabled, Length Within a Range or Any Length are the preferred
options.
• One Discrete Length - Select this option to decode only Code 39 symbols containing a selected length.
Select the length using the numeric bar codes in
Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes . For example, to
decode only Code 39 symbols with 14 characters, scan Code 39 - One Discrete Length, then scan 1
followed by 4. To correct an error or change the selection, scan
Cancel on page D-2 .
• Two Discrete Lengths - Select this option to decode only Code 39 symbols containing either of two
selected lengths. Select lengths using the numeric bar codes in
Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes . For
example, to decode only those Code 39 symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, select Code 39 -
Two Discrete Lengths, then scan 0, 2, 1, and then 4. To correct an error or change the selection,
scan
Cancel on page D-2 .
NOTE
Convert Code 39 to Code 32 must be enabled for this parameter to function.
