Code 39 — cont.
Code 39 Set Length 2
This feature specifies one of the barcode lengths for Code 39 Length Control. Length 2 is the
maximum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the second fixed length if in Fixed Length
Mode. Length includes the barcode’s check, data, and
full-ASCII shift characters. The length
does not include start/stop characters.
The length can be set from 1 to 50 characters. 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. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming
Mode.
3. Scan the barcode: SELECT CODE 39 LENGTH 2 SETTING.
4. Scan the appropriate two digits from
the keypad in Appendix E
, Keypad, that represent the
length setting which was determined in the steps abov
e. You will hear a two-beep indica-
tion after the last character.
NOTE
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming
Mod
e.
This completes the procedure. See Table 22 for some examples of how to set this feature.
