Set Lengths for Code 39

L1 = Parameter # 18 SSI # 12h
L2 = Parameter # 19 SSI # 13h
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 Code 39 to any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a specific range. If Code 39 Full ASCII is enabled, Length Within Range or Any Length are the preferred options. The maximum range is . The default is Length Within Range: .
When setting lengths, enter a leading zero for single digit numbers.
Scan one of the following barcodes to select a length option:
  • One Discrete Length - Decode only Code 39 symbols containing a selected length. Select the length using the barcodes in Numeric Barcodes. For example, to decode only Code 39 symbols with 14 characters, scan Code 39 - One Discrete Length, and then scan 1, 4. To correct an error or change the selection, scan Cancel.
  • Two Discrete Lengths - Decode only Code 39 symbols containing either of two lengths. Select lengths using the barcodes in Numeric Barcodes. For example, to decode only Code 39 symbols containing either 2 or 14 characters, scan Code 39 - Two Discrete Lengths, and then scan 0, 2, 1, 4. To correct an error or change the selection, scan Cancel.
  • Length Within Range - Decode Code 39 symbols with a specific length range. Select lengths using the barcodes in Numeric Barcodes. For example, to decode Code 39 symbols containing between 4 and 12 characters, scan Code 39 - Length Within Range, and then scan 0, 4, 1, 2. To correct an error or change the selection, scan Cancel.
  • Any Length - Decode Code 39 symbols containing any number of characters within the scanner’s capability.
