Codabar Fixed Length
Most scanners shipped from the factory are set to read variable length
labels for Codabar. If you switch from variable to fixed length labels, the
factory set fixed label lengths are 14 and 08. Follow the steps below to
change these defaults.
Enable Fixed
1. Identify the fixed length settings you want to make.
2. Scan the SET label.
3. Scan the SET FIRST FIXED LENGTH label.
Setting Lengths
If you are setting a length less than ten, you must scan a zero first and
then the length digit (02, ...09).
4. Set the first fixed length label by scanning the correct digits
from the next page. The selectable range is from 03 to 50 *
digits.
If you need to set a second fixed length, continue with step
five. If you do not need to set a second fixed length, scan
the NO SECOND FIXED LENGTH label below and skip to
step seven.

* For variable length symbologies, the QS6000/6000 Plus will decode up to 50 characters, but
the actual length varies with label size and quality. The IBM POS interface is limited to 32
characters labels.
