Set Length 2 This feature allows you to set one of the barcode lengths for the specified symbology. Length 2 is
the maximum label length if in
Variable Length Mode, or the second fixed length if in Fixed Length
Mode. See the page for the specific symbology for parameters.
The length that can be set varies depending on the symbology. 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 50 — 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 Go to the Set Length page for your selected symbology and scan the ENTER/EXIT PRO-
GRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.
3 Scan the barcode to SELECT LENGTH 2 SETTING for your selected symbology.
4 Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D: Keypad that represent the
length setting which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication
after the last character.
5 Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming Mode.
This completes the procedure.
NOTE
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.
