Maximum overall code
length:
*2 32 = 4,294,967,296 (the theoretic maximum). However, the maximum wrap number is only
9,999,999. 32 bits is only allowed for SureTrac software. Since DI900/DI950 UI will not check for any
wrap errors. Others should use 24 bits max.
**2 24 = 16,777,216 (the theoretic maximum). However, the maximum wrap number is only 9,999,999.
Not Available or Supported
NOTE1: CCD used at Base 10 becomes BCD
NOTE2: The advantage of using a larger code base is that you can count to a larger number with the
same sized barcode.
