Set Length 2

This feature specifies one of the bar code lengths for a given symbology. Length 2 is the maxi-
mum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the second fixed length if in Fixed Length
Mode. Length includes the bar code’s data characters only.

Reference the

Symbologies

section to view the selectable range (number of characters) for the

symbology being set.. A setting of 00 specifies to ignore this length (only one fixed length).

Follow these instructions to set this feature:

1. Determine the desired character 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 bar code to enter Programming

Mode.

3. Scan the “Select Length 2 Setting” for the symbology being set.

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 indi-
cation after the last character.

5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Programming

Mode.

This completes the procedure. See

Table 20

for some examples of how to set this feature.

Table 20. Length 2 Setting Examples

NOTE

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