To avoid truncation errors, the scanner can be programmed to only decode bar codes of one specific

length, i.e., containing a specific number of digits. It is also possible to program the scanner to only

decode bar codes of either of two specific lengths.

To fix two (2) lengths (or number

of digits) of bar code for all symbologies:

1. Scan “START” to enter the

programming mode

2. Scan “Enable fixation(H1) for all

symbologies” bar code

3. Scan a sample bar code of

the desired length

4. Repeat Step #3, re-scanning

the sample bar code (this may be

the same as the first one)

5. Scan “END” to exit the

programming mode

To fix one (1) or two (2) different lengths

of bar codes for selected symbologies:

1. Scan “START” to enter

the programming mode

2. Scan “Enable fixation(HK) for

selected symbologies” bar code

3. Scan a sample bar code of

the desired length #1

4a. Go to step 5

4b. Scan a sample bar code

of the desired length #2

5. Scan “END” to exit the

programming mode

“Fixing the Number of Digits” can only be applied to Code 39, NW-7, 2 of 5, MSI/Plessey. WPC, Code

93, IATA, Code 128 are not affected.

Setting Minimum/Maximum Length

This option modifies the default minimum length table. To use this option, perform the following steps:

1. Scan “START” to enter the programming mode

2. Scan “Enable minimum length for selected codes” (HL)

3. Scan bar codes of the

required type and length

4. Scan “END” to end the programming sequence.
