Code 128 Minimum Label Length
This feature specifies the minimum allowable length of a Code 128 label.
To set this feature:
1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.
2. Scan the bar code, SET CODE 128 MINIMUM LABEL
LENGTH below. You’ll need to cover any unused bar codes on
this and the facing page to ensure that the scanner reads only the
bar code you intend to scan.
3. Scan the appropriate digits from the keypad in Appendix C that
represent the desired minimum label length. The selectable range
for this option is 01 to 80. Pad all single digit numbers with a
leading zero to yield a two-digit entry (01-80).
4. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
bar code.
SET CODE 128 MINIMUM LABEL LENGTH
NOTE
Length in this case includes function characteres and data characters, but
does not include function code change or check character. This feature
applies when Code 128 Length Control is set to variable-length
decoding.
Minumum label length should be less than or equal to maximum label
length.
