8100/8100Ω and 8200/8200Ω Scanner
EAN-8 Decoding Levels
Decoding levels allow the decoder to be set to perform at one of four
selectable levels:
• Very Conservative — Slower scan time, however, allows few, if
any, misreads. The most secure setting.
• Slightly More Aggressive — Faster scanning, less security.
• Moderately Aggressive — Even faster scanning, but even less
security.
• Very Aggressive — Fastest scan speed, but will increase the poten-
tial for misreads. The least secure setting.
To set this feature:
1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.
2. Scan the bar code representing the desired option on the follow-
ing pages. You’ll need to cover any unused bar codes on facing
pages to ensure that the scanner reads only the bar code you
intend to scan.
3. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
bar code.
CAUTION
Use caution when setting this feature, as the aggressive settings for this
feature allow a higher potential for misreads.
NOTE
It is important to note that the default for this feature is the “VERY CONSER-
VATIVE” setting. For default settings for other features, see Appendix E.
