2) Scan preamble
3) Refer to ASCII Table (page 50) and find the code number in hex decimal: # ASCII => 23 hex
The two digit numbers are: 2 3
4) Refer to Table-Hex: HEXADECIMAL (page 49) and scan the two digit labels accordingly.
5) Scan the "Confirm" label in Table-Hex
6) Scan "postamble"

2) Scan the Length Define Label
3) Scan the Four Digit Labels in Table Hex (Page 49)
Tips:
• Refer to the Hexadecimal-Decimal Conversion Table (page 52) to get the barcode length in
Hexadecimal Number 15 dec => 0F hex
• The Four Digit numbers are: 0 F 0 F
• Refer to the Table-Hex: HEXADECIMAL (page 49) and scan the Four digit Labels accordingly.
4) Scan the Confirm Label in Table-Hex: HEXADECIMAL (Page 49)
5) Go back to Group 9-1 and scan the "Exit" Label.
