To program the previous example using specific lengths, you would have to count the programmed Preamble,
Postamble, Scanned Data Length, Prefix/Suffix Symbol ID or AIM ID if you had defined as part of the length. If
you enable the Suffix Symbol ID of symbology, you would add one character to the previous example’s length.
You would set up the Batch Reading rule with the following command line:
[PROGRAM] [Batch Reading] [0301001141FF070011FF09001345464748FF] [FIN] [END]
The breakdown of the command line is shown below:
