All Symbologies

For best scanner performance, you should only enable the symbologies that you

need. Scan All Symbologies Off to disable all symbologies, then enable the sym-

bologies you need by scanning the On bar code for each symbology.

Message Length Description

You are able to set the valid reading length of some of the bar code symbologies.

You may wish to set the same value for minimum and maximum length to force the

scanner to read fixed length bar code data. This helps reduce the chances of a mis-

read.

Example: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 9-20 characters.

Min. length = 09

Max. length = 20

Example: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.

Min. length = 15

Max. length = 15

For a value other than the minimum and maximum message length defaults, scan

the bar codes included in the explanation of the symbology, then scan the digit

value of the message length and Save bar codes from the Programming Chart,

beginning on page 309. The minimum and maximum lengths and the defaults are

included with the respective symbologies.
