in a 123Scan configuration file.
• MDF can be deployed to a fleet of 2D scanners using the Scanner Management Service (SMS) through a
traditional SMS package.

Preferred Symbol
Preferred Symbol is a barcode prioritization technique that enables favored decoding of high priority barcode(s).
The Preferred Symbol is the only barcode that is decoded and output within the preset Preferred Symbol Timeout.
During this time, the scanner attempts to decode the prioritized barcode and reports only this barcode.
