Fixed Length Decoding— 
When fixed length decoding is enabled, the scanner will decode a 
barcode if the label length matches one of the configurable fixed lengths.
Variable Length Decoding— 
When variable length decoding is enabled, the scanner will 
decode a barcode if the label length falls in the range of the configurable minimum and maxi-
mum length.
Configuring Fixed Length Decoding:
1. Scan the START/END barcode.
2. Scan the Fixed Length Decoding barcode.
3. Scan the START/END barcode.
4. Set Length 1 to the first fixed length by following the

5. Set Length 2 to the second fixed length (or to ‘00’ if there is only one fixed length) by fol-
lowing the 
GS1 DataBar Expanded Length 1, Length 2 Programming Instructions below.
Configuring Variable Length Decoding:
1. Scan the START/END barcode.
2. Scan the Variable Length Decoding barcode.
3. Scan the START/END barcode.
4. Set Length 1 to the first variable length by following the 
GS1 DataBar Expanded Length 1,
