I 2 of 5 Length Control
The I 2 of 5 symbology is subject to misreads, since
a scanner may read only a portion of an I 2 of 5 bar
code and the decoder can erroneously interpret the
portion as the entire bar code.
Two safeguards for this problem are offered in this
programming kit:
•
Set a Minimum Allowable Length for I
2 of 5 bar codes. This length is selectable
from 4 to 32 characters (even numbers
only).
•
Set one or two Fixed Lengths. This
option causes the scanner to read only I
2 of 5 bar codes that are of a specified
length or lengths.
The minimum allowable length setting
will only apply when the fixed length
option is disabled.
