Set Lengths for Discrete 2 of 5 (D 2 of 5)

L1
Parameter #
20
(SSI #14h)
L2
Parameter #
21
(SSI #15h)
This parameter sets the lengths for D 2 of 5.
The length of a code refers to the number of characters (for example, human-readable characters), including check digit(s) the code contains.
The options are:
  • Any length
  • One or Two discrete lengths
  • Lengths within a specific range
The default behavior is
1 to 55
, with a defulat range of
.
When setting the lengths, enter a leading zero for single digit numbers.
  • One Discrete Length - Decode only D 2 of 5 symbols containing a selected length.
  • Two Discrete Lengths - Decode only D 2 of 5 symbols containing either of two lengths.
  • *
    Length Within Range - Decode D 2 of 5 symbols with a specific length range.
  • Any Length - Decode D 2 of 5 symbols containing any number of characters within the scanner’s capability.
Due to the construction of the D 2 of 5 symbology, it is possible for a scan line covering only a portion of the code to transmit as a complete scan, yielding less data than is encoded in the barcode. To prevent this, select specific lengths (D 2 of 5 - One Discrete Length, Two Discrete Lengths) for D 2 of 5 applications.
