Level 1: This is the default setting which allows the scanner to operate fastest, while providing
sufficient security in decoding “in-spec” UPC/EAN bar codes.
Level 2: If you are experiencing misread of poorly-printed, soiled or damage bar codes in level 1,
please select level 2. This is the most aggressive setting and may increase the misread.
Supplement Scan Voting
The Supplement Scan Voting is the number of times the same UPC/EAN with 2/5 supplement digits has to be
decoded before it is transmitted. It is helpful when decoding a mix of UPC/EAN symbols with and without
supplement digits. This function is effective when you select UPC/EAN with only 2 supplement digits,
UPC/EAN with only 5 supplement digits or UPC/EAN with 2/5 supplement digits. The default value is Level 3.
When you select a higher level, it may impact the reading speed on poorly-printed, low contrast or damaged
barcode labels.
