GS1 DataBar™ Expanded Set Length 2
This feature specifies one of the barcode lengths for
GS1 DataBar™ Expanded Length Control
.
Length 2 is the maximum label length if in
Variable Length
Mode, or the second fixed length if
in
Fixed Length
Mode. Length includes the barcode’s data characters only.
The length can be set from 1 to 74 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 74). 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 GS1 DataBar™ EXPANDED LENGTH 2 SETTING.
4. 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 indica-
tion after the last character.
NOTE
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming
Mode.
This completes the procedure. See Table
20
for some examples of how to set this feature.
