INTERLEAVED 2 OF 5: Check Digit: OFF

<>



For applications requiring enhanced data security, a check digit can be used on INTERLEAVED 2 of 5 bar codes. When used,
the check digit immediately follows the last data character. Use this option to choose between the type of INTERLEAVED 2 of 5
check digit, select from MOD 10, OPCC, or OFF (None).

INTERLEAVED 2 OF 5: Send Check Digit: OFF

<>



Some applications may require that you use a check digit in the bar code for security but do not require the check digit be
transmitted to the computer. Use this option to have the decoder either send the check digit to the computer or remove the
check digit from the transmitted data.

INTERLEAVED 2 OF 5: Maximum Length: 100

<>

INTERLEAVED 2 OF 5: Minimum Length: 4

<>



Use these options to configure the minimum and maximum lengths of INTERLEAVED 2 of 5 bar codes that can be read. If you
configure the Maximum Length to 10 characters and the Minimum Length to 5 characters, the decoder will not read
INTERLEAVED 2 of 5 bar codes with less than 5 characters and more than 10 characters.





Note: The Maximum and Minimum Length options are ignored if you enable the Fixed Length option.


INTERLEAVED 2 OF 5: Fixed Length: OFF

<>



Use this option to configure the INTERLEAVED 2 of 5 decoder to read only fixed length bar codes. When this option is enabled
the following two prompts (Fixed Length #1 and Fixed Length #2) are used to set the two different sizes of INTERLEAVED 2 of
5 bar codes that will be allowed.

INTERLEAVED 2 OF 5: Fixed Length #1: 6

<>



INTERLEAVED 2 OF 5: Fixed Length #2: 14

<>

These options are used to define the Fixed Length requirements for INTERLEAVED 2 of 5 bar codes. These two options are
only used if the Fixed Length option is set to ON.

<>

INTERLEAVED 2 OF 5: Type ID: i DEC 105 HEX 69

ASCII ALT



Use this option to configure the Type ID for the INTERLEAVED 2 of 5 bar code. Type ID's can be transmitted as a prefix or a
suffix to the bar code data, for more information see OTHER: Send Bar Code Type ID on page 18.

INTERLEAVED 2 OF 5: Laser/CCD Redundancy: ON

<>



Use this option to control the Laser/CCD redundancy for INTERLEAVED 2 of 5 bar codes. With this option enabled, a
INTERLEAVED 2 of 5 bar code must be read twice in a row when using a Laser or CCD device, to be considered a good read.
This option provides additional security when scanning poorly printed or damaged bar codes.





Note: Using this option does not require you to physically read the same bar code twice to get a good read. The scanner
continuously sweeps across the bar code the number of times necessary when this mode is enabled, therefore requiring no
additional operator intervention.


Select Option Group: INDUSTRIAL 2 OF 5 GROUP
Select this option group to modify the individual settings for the INDUSTRIAL 2 of 5 decoder. Once you have selected this
option group, you may cursor down to configure each of the following decoder options.

INDUSTRIAL 2 OF 5: Decoder: ON

<>



Use this option to enable or disable the INDUSTRIAL 2 of 5 decoder. The default for this option is ON.

INDUSTRIAL 2 OF 5: Start/Stop Characters: STANDARD (3 BAR)

<>



Use this option to configure the type of Start/Stop characters the Industrial 2 of 5 decoder will use when decoding Industrial 2 of
5 bar codes. You may choose from STANDARD (3 BAR) Start/Stop characters and 2 BAR Start/Stop characters.





Note: The 2 BAR Start/Stop version of Industrial 2 of 5 is also referred to as Airline Code.
