MSI/Plessey Minimum Label Length
This feature specifies the minimum allowable length of an MSI/Plessey
label.
To set this feature:
1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.
2. Scan the bar code, SET MSI/PLESSEY 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 4 to 16. Pad all single digit numbers with a lead-
ing zero to yield a two-digit entry (04-16).
4. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
bar code.
SET MSI/PLESSEY MINIMUM LABEL LENGTH
NOTE
Length in this case includes check and data characters, but does not
include start, stop or full ASCII shift characters. This applies when MSI/
Plessey Length Control is set to variable-length decoding.
Minimum label length should be less than or equal to maximum label
length.
