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. Lengths for MSI may be set for any length, one
or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a specific range.
Note:When setting lengths for different bar code types by scanning single
digit numbers, single digit numbers must always be preceded by a
leading zero.
One Discrete Length - This option allows you to decode only those MSI symbols
containing a selected length. Lengths are selected from the numeric bar codes beginning
on page D-1 in Appendix D. For example, to decode only MSI symbols with 14 characters,
scan MSI - One Discrete Length, then scan 1 followed by 4. If you make an error or wish
to change your selection, scan Cancel on page D-5.

Two Discrete Lengths - This option allows you to decode only those MSI symbols
containing either of two selected lengths. Lengths are selected from the numeric bar
codes beginning on page D-1 in Appendix D. 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. If you make an error or wish to change your selection, scan
Cancel on page D-5.
