Standard 2 of 5 Minimum Label Length
This feature specifies the minimum allowable length of an Standard 2 of 5
label.
To set this feature:
1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.
2. Scan the bar code, SET STANDARD 2 OF 5 MINIMUM LABEL
LENGTH below. You’ll need to cover any unused bar codes on this
and the facing page to ensure that the scanner reads only the bar
code you intend to scan.
3. Scan the appropriate digits from the keypad in Appendix C that rep-
resent the desired minimum label length. The selectable range for
this option is 01 to 50, even numbers only. Pad all single digit num-
bers with a leading zero to yield a two-digit entry (01-50).
4. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
bar code.
SET STANDARD 2 OF 5 MINIMUM LABEL LENGTH
NOTE
Length in this case includes check and data characters, but does not
include start or stop characters. This feature applies when Standard
2 of 5 Length Control is set to variable-length decoding.
Minimum label length should be less than or equal to maximum label
length.
