Qualification Because of the weak structure of the 2 of 5 codes a partial scan has a high probability of decoding as a valid but shorter 2 of 5 codes known as short scan To prevent this kind of undesired reading the Code Length settings can help to insure that the correct code is read by qualifying the allowable code length Code length parameters can be configured in two ways Fixed Code Length or Max Min code length If the fixed code length is selected up to 2 fixed lengths can be specified And if max min code length is selected the max length and the min length must be specified and the scanner will only accept those codes with lengths fall between max min length specified Read Odd Number of Digits This parameter is available only for the Interleave 25 This parameter must be enabled in order to read Interleave 25 labels that contain odd number of digits Codabar CodaBar is a variable length bar code type that permits the encoding of the following 22 characters 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 comma A B C D The characters A B C and D are only used as start and stop characters Thus the first and last digits of a CodaBar message must be A B C or D and the body of the message should not contain these characters Enable Codabar Enables Codabar as an active bar code type Codabar Negative Start Stop Selection There are four different start stop pairs v Enable Codabar available as listed below
