Set Lengths for MSI
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 MSI for any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a specific
range.
One Discrete Length - Select this option to decode only MSI symbols containing a selected length. Select the
length using the numeric bar codes in
. For example, to decode only MSI symbols
with 14 characters, scan MSI - One Discrete Length, then scan 1 followed by 4. To correct an error or change a
selection, scan Cancel on
MSI - One Discrete Length
Two Discrete Lengths - Select this option to decode only MSI symbols containing either of two selected
lengths. Select the lengths using the numeric bar codes in
. For example, to
decode only those MSI symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, select MSI - Two Discrete Lengths, then
scan 0, 2, 1, and then 4. To correct an error or change a selection, scan Cancel on
MSI - Two Discrete Lengths
Length Within Range - Select this option to decode an MSI symbol with a specific length range. Select the
length range using the numeric bar codes in
Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes.
For example, to decode MSI
symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, first scan MSI - Length Within Range. Then scan 0, 4, 1, and
2 (single digit numbers must always be preceded by a leading zero). To correct an error or change a selection,
scan Cancel on
.
MSI - Length Within Range
Any Length - Scan this option to decode MSI symbols containing any number of characters within the scanner’s
capability.
MSI - Any Length
NOTE
Due to the construction of the MSI symbology, it is possible for a scan line covering only a portion of the
code to transmit as a complete scan, yielding less data than is encoded in the bar code. To prevent this,
Motorola recommends selecting specific lengths (MSI - One Discrete Length, Two Discrete Lengths) for
MSI applications.
