Discrete 2 of 5 (D 2 of 5)

Enable/Disable Discrete 2 of 5

To enable or disable Discrete 2 of 5, scan the appropriate bar code below.

Set Lengths for Discrete 2 of 5
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 for any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a specific range.
One Discrete Length - This option allows the digital scanner to decode only those D 2 of 5 symbols containing a selected length.
Use the numeric bar codes in
14 characters, scan D 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length, then scan 1 followed by 4. In case of an error, or to change the selection, scan

D-5.
Two Discrete Lengths - This option allows the digital scanner to decode only those D 2 of 5 symbols containing either of two
selected lengths. Use the numeric bar codes in
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. In
case of an error, or to change the selection, scan Cancel on
Length Within Range - This option allows the digital scanner to decode a D 2 of 5 symbol within a specific length range.
Use the numeric bar codes in
containing between 4 and 12 characters, first scan D 2 of 5 - Length Within Range. Then scan 0, 4, 1, and 2 (insert a leading zero
for single digit numbers). In case of an error, or to change the selection, scan Cancel on
Any Length - This option allows the digital scanner to decode D 2 of 5 symbols containing any number of characters within the digital
scanner's capability.
Due to the construction of the D 2 of 5 symbology, the digital scanner can interpret a scan line covering only
a portion of the code 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.
