Discrete 2 of 5 (DTF)
Enable/Disable Discrete 2 of 5
Parameter # 05h
To enable or disable Discrete 2 of 5, scan the appropriate bar code below.
Set Lengths for Discrete 2 of 5
Parameter # L1 = 14h, L2 = 15h
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 D 2 of 5 to any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a
specific range.
•
One Discrete Length - Select this option to decode only D 2 of 5 symbols containing a selected length.
Select the length using the numeric bar codes in Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes. For example, to
decode only D 2 of 5 symbols with 14 characters, scan D 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length, then scan 1
followed by 4. To correct an error or to change the selection, scan Cancel on page D-2.
•
Two Discrete Lengths - Select this option to decode only D 2 of 5 symbols containing either of two
selected lengths. Select lengths using the numeric bar codes in Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes. For
example, to decode only those D 2 of 5 symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, select D 2 of 5 -
Two Discrete Lengths, then scan 0, 2, 1, and then 4. To correct an error or to change the
selection, scan Cancel on page D-2.
•
Length Within Range - Select this option to decode a D 2 of 5 symbol with a specific length
range. Select lengths using numeric bar codes in Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes. For example, to
decode D 2 of 5 symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, first scan D 2 of 5 - 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 the selection, scan Cancel on page D-2.
•
Any Length - Scan this option to decode D 2 of 5 symbols containing any number of characters within
the digital imager scanner capability.

NOTE Due to the construction of the D 2 of 5 symbology, it is possible for a scan line covering only
a portion of the code to be interpreted as a complete scan, yielding less data than is encoded in
the bar code. To prevent this, select specific lengths (D 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length - Two
Discrete Lengths) for D 2 of 5 applications.
