Set Lengths For Code 39 - Motorola Symbol MS4404 Integration Manual

Set Lengths for Code 39

Parameter # L1 = 12h, L2 = 13h
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 Code 39 to any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a specific
range. If Code 39 Full ASCII is enabled, Length Within a Range or Any Length are the preferred options.
NOTE When setting lengths for different bar code types by decoding single digit numbers, single digit numbers
must always be preceded by a leading zero.
•
One Discrete Length - Select this option to decode only Code 39 symbols containing a selected length.
Select the length using the numeric bar codes in
only Code 39 symbols with 14 characters, capture Code 39 - One Discrete Length, then capture 1 followed
by 4. To correct an error or change the selection, capture Cancel on
•
Two Discrete Lengths - Select this option to decode only Code 39 symbols containing either of two
selected lengths. Select lengths using the numeric bar codes in
example, to decode only those Code 39 symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, select Code 39 - Two
Discrete Lengths, then capture 0, 2, 1, and then 4. To correct an error or change the selection,
capture Cancel on
•
Length Within Range - Select this option to decode a Code 39 symbol with a specific length range.
Select lengths using numeric bar codes in
Code 39 symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, first capture Code 39 - Length Within Range.
Then capture 0, 4, 1, and 2 (single digit numbers must always be preceded by a leading zero). To correct an
error or change the selection, capture Cancel on
•
Any Length - Select this option to decode Code 39 symbols containing any number of characters within the
imager capability.
