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.
• One Discrete Length
One Discrete Length
One Discrete Length
One Discrete Length - Select this option to decode only MSI symbols containing a selected length. Select the
length using the numeric bar codes in Appendix A, Numeric Bar Codes. For example, to decode only MSI symbols
with 14 characters, scan MSI

Any Length - Scan this option to decode MSI symbols containing any number of characters within the decoder
capability.
Due to the construction of the MSI symbology, it is possible for a scan line covering only a portion of the code to be
interpreted as a complete scan, yielding less data than is encoded in the bar code. To prevent
this, select specific lengths (MSI - One Discrete Length - Two Discrete Lengths) for MSI applications.
