Standard 2 of 5 Maximum Label Length
This feature specifies the maximum allowable length of a Standard 2 of 5
label.
To set this feature:
1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.
2. Scan the bar code, SET STANDARD 2 OF 5 MAXIMUM LABEL
LENGTH below. You’ll need to cover any unused bar codes on this
and the facing page to ensure that the scanner reads only the bar
code you intend to scan.
3. Scan the appropriate digits from the keypad in Appendix C that rep-
resent the desired maximum label length. The selectable range for
this option is 01 to 50, even numbers only. Pad all single digit num-
bers with a leading zero to yield a two-digit entry (01-50).
4. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
bar code.
SET STANDARD 2 OF 5 MAXIMUM LABEL LENGTH
NOTE
Length in this case includes check and data characters, but does
not include start or stop characters. This feature applies when
Standard 2 of 5 Length Control is set to variable-length
decoding.
Maximum label length should be greater than or equal to minimum
label length.
