Narrative:

On arrival for landing; I had a little trouble getting a landing data assessment to come up on the ACARS until I entered the correct code for a displaced threshold 05-SW578F. Again when doing our takeoff data; the ACARS would only give us data with 05-SW578F entered. I misinterpreted this to mean the takeoff data was based on a takeoff from the displaced threshold; and not the full length. So when cleared to back taxi; cleared for takeoff; I only went as far as the displaced threshold.about ten minutes into the flight; I was thinking why only have numbers from the threshold. I pulled out the old release; and checked it against the takeoff release; and saw my mistake. The landing distance for that code included the displaced threshold. The takeoff distance for that same code did not include the displaced threshold; it was for full length. I made a poor interpretation of the takeoff data code; and did not look at the planned runway length on the release tlr together with the ACARS perf.it not very common to get these runway code corrections; so threat and error management would be well used by slowing down and double checking both release and ACARS data.
