When setting lengths, enter a leading zero for single-digit numbers.
One Discrete Length - Decode only Codabar symbols containing a selected length.
Two Discrete Lengths - Decode only Codabar symbols containing either of two lengths.
Length Within Range - Decode Codabar symbols with a specific length range.
Any Length - Decode Codabar symbols containing any number of characters within the scanner’s capability.
Select lengths using barcodes in Numeric Barcodes. To correct an error or change the selection, scan Cancel.
For example:
To decode only Codabar symbols with 14 characters, scan Codabar - One Discrete Length, and then scan 1, 4.
To decode only Codabar symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, scan Codabar - Two Discrete Lengths, and then scan 0, 2, 1, 4.
To decode Codabar symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, scan Codabar - Length Within Range, and then scan 0, 4, 1, 2.
