Set Lengths for Code 128

Parameter #
209
 (SSI #D1h)
Parameter #
210
 (SSI #D2h)
This parameter sets lengths for Code 128 to any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a specific range.
The length of a code refers to the number of characters (for example, human-readable characters), including check digit(s) the code contains. The default is
0 to 80
.
The maximum range is 0 - 80.
When setting lengths, enter a leading zero for single digit numbers.
  • One Discrete Length - Decode only Code 128 symbols containing a selected length.
  • Two Discrete Lengths - Decode only Code 128 symbols containing either of two lengths.
  • Length Within Range - Decode Code 128 symbols with a specific length range.
  • Any Length - Decode Code 128 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 Code 128 symbols with 14 characters, scan Code 128 - One Discrete Length, and then scan 1, 4.
  • To decode only Code 128 symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, scan Code 128 - Two Discrete Lengths, and then scan 0, 2, 1, 4.
  • To decode Code 128 symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, scan Code 128 - Length Within Range, and then scan 0, 4, 1, 2.
