may either transmit, or not transmit Start/Stop characters.

Message Length
The message length selection is used to set the valid reading length of the bar
code. If the data length of the scanned bar code doesn't match the valid reading
length, the scanner will issue an error beep. You may wish to set the same value
for minimum and maximum length to force the scanner to read fixed length bar
code data. This helps reduce the chances of a misread.
EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 9-20 characters.
Min. length = 09
EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.
Min. length = 15
