Set Lengths for MSI
L1 = Parameter # 30
SSI # 1Eh
L2 = Parameter # 31
SSI # 1Fh
The length of a code refers to the number of characters (i.e., human readable characters), including check digit(s)
the code contains. Set lengths for MSI to any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a specific range.
Minimum and maximum length range is from 0 - 55. The default minimum and maximum length range is from 4 -
55.
Scan one of the following bar codes to select a length option:
• One Discrete Length - Decode only MSI symbols containing a selected length. Select the length using the
bar codes in Appendix G, Numeric Bar Codes. For example, to decode only MSI symbols with 14 characters,
scan MSI - One Discrete Length, and then scan 1, 4. To correct an error or change the selection, scan
Cancel on page G-3.
• Two Discrete Lengths - Decode only MSI symbols containing either of two lengths. Select lengths using
the bar codes in Appendix G, Numeric Bar Codes. For example, to decode only MSI symbols containing
either 2 or 14 characters, scan MSI - Two Discrete Lengths, and then scan 0, 2, 1, 4. To correct an
error or change the selection, scan Cancel on page G-3.
• Length Within Range - Decode MSI symbols with a specific length range. Select lengths using the bar
codes in Appendix G, Numeric Bar Codes. For example, to decode MSI symbols containing between 4
and 12 characters, scan MSI - Length Within Range, and then scan 0, 4, 1, 2. To correct an error or
change the selection, scan Cancel on page G-3.
NOTE The maximum number of 1D bar code characters readable with scanner depends on the type of
symbology, type of characters (i.e., digits or letters), printing density, and quality. For reference, the
DS2208 reads 3.1 in wide, 10mil 1D bar codes printed with 1200dpi resolution and 80% contrast.
NOTE When setting lengths, enter a leading zero for single digit numbers.
