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 fac-
ing 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 rep-
resent 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 characters and data char-
acters, but does not include function code change or check char-
acter. This feature applies when Code 128 Length Control is set
to variable-length decoding.
Minimum label length should be less than or equal to maximum
label length.
