Minimum and Maximum Length Options
You can set minimum and maximum length standards for a particular indus-
trial bar code symbology. (You cannot set a minimum or maximum length for
a retail bar code.)
Minimum length sets the minimum number of data characters that will be
accepted for this symbology. If the minimum length is set higher than the
maximum length, all readings will be rejected.

2. Press <ENTER>. The reader should beep twice.
3. Enter the selection code for the particular symbology selected (such as
F4<ENTER> for Code 128). The reader should beep twice.
