Set Lengths for Matrix 2 of 5
Parameter # L1 = 619, L2 = 620
The length of a code refers to the number of characters (i.e., human readable characters), including check
digit(s) the code contains. Set lengths for Matrix 2 of 5 to any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths
within a specific range. The default option is
One Discrete Length: 14.
•
One Discrete Length - Decode only Matrix 2 of 5 symbols containing a selected length. Select the
length using the bar codes in Appendix G, Numeric Bar Codes . For example, to decode only Matrix 2 of 5
symbols with 14 characters, scan Matrix 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length , and then scan 1 , 4 . To correct
an error or to change the selection, scan Cancel on page G-2 .
•
Two Discrete Lengths - Decode only Matrix 2 of 5 symbols containing either of two lengths. Select
lengths using the bar codes in Appendix G, Numeric Bar Codes . For example, to decode only Matrix 2 of
5 symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, select Matrix 2 of 5 - Two Discrete Lengths , and then
scan 0 , 2 , 1 , 4 . To correct an error or to change the selection, scan Cancel on page G-2 .
•
Length Within Range - Decode a Matrix 2 of 5 symbol with a specific length range. Select lengths
using the bar codes in Appendix G, Numeric Bar Codes . For example, to decode Matrix 2 of 5
symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, first scan Matrix 2 of 5 - Length Within Range , and
then scan 0 , 4 , 1, 2 (enter a leading zero for single digit numbers). To correct an error or change the
selection, scan Cancel on page G-2 .
•
Any Length - Decode Matrix 2 of 5 symbols containing any number of characters within the digital
scanner’s capability.
NOTE When setting lengths, enter a leading zero for single digit numbers.
