Datalogic 2 of 5 Set Length 1
This feature specifies one of the barcode lengths for Datalogic 2 of 5 Length Control .
Length 1 is the minimum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the first fixed
length if in Fixed Length Mode. The length includes the barcode’s check and data char-
acters.
The length can be set from 2 to 50 characters in increments of two.
Follow these instructions to set this feature:
1. Determine the desired character length (from 2 to 50). The length must be an even num-
ber.
2. Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20,
etc.
3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming
Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT I 2 of 5 LENGTH 1 SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix E, Keypad , that represent
the length setting which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indi-
cation after the last character.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming
Mode.
This completes the procedure. See Table 27 for some examples of how to set this feature.

abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.
