Code 128 Set Length 2
This feature specifies one of the barcode lengths for
2 is the maximum label length if in
Mode, or the second fixed length if
in
Mode. Length includes the barcode’s data characters only.
The length can be set from 1 to 80 characters. A setting of 0 specifies to ignore this length
(only one fixed length).
Follow these instructions to set this feature:
1. Determine the desired character length (from 1 to 80 — or 0 to ignore this length). Pad
the number with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20,
etc.
2. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming
Mode.
3. Scan the barcode: SELECT CODE 128 LENGTH 2 SETTING.
4. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in
, that represent
the length setting which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indi-
cation after the last character.
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming
Mode.
This completes the procedure. See
for some examples of how to set this feature.

If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to
abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.
