Using Reader Configuration Utility
2D IMAGER SETTINGS
Setting Description Default
Decode Timeout Sets the maximum time for the decoding process during a scan.
Configurable between 1 sec to 9 sec.
3 sec.
Redundancy Level Sets how many successful readings should be done before
linear barcodes such as Codabar, MSI, and Interleaved 2 of 5
can be decoded. Levels 1 to 4 available.
Level 1
Security Level Sets the security level to ensure decoding accuracy considering
the printed quality of barcodes such as Code 128, Code 93, and
UPC/EAN. The higher the level is, the more security is ensured.
Options are:
Level Description
0 With this default, the scan engine is aggressive
enough to decode most “in-spec” barcodes.
1 Select this level if misdecodes have occurred. It
fixes most misdecodes.
2 Select this level if Level 1 should fail to eliminate
misdecodes.
3 Select this level if Security Level 2 should fail to
prevent misdecodes. However, as this level actually
impairs the decoding ability of the decoder, a safer
solution would be to improve the quality of the bar
codes to read.
Level 0
Inter-Char Gap Size Sets the intercharacter gap size for Code 39 and Codabar. This
option is to allow the digital scanner to adjust its decoding
standard so as to tolerate out-of-specification bar codes that
are improperly printed out (which may cause the intercharacter
size to become larger). Switch between Normal and Large.
Normal
Scan Mode Sets the reader’s scanning behavior.
Level: The decoding process is activated by a trigger event,
and continues until the trigger event ends, a valid decode
happens or decode session time-out is reached.
Presentation Mode: When this device is executing Barcode
reader service under this mode, the reader module will stay
active and automatically turn off after the user-defined
period of time (Presentation Usage Time).
Level
Presentation Usage
Time
This option is available when Presentation is selected as the
scan mode. This defines the duration of how long Presentation
mode stays active, after which the laser light beam will
automatically be disabled.
15 Minutes
Decoding
Illumination
Enables an LED light beam to aid barcode reading. Selected
(Enabled)
Decode Aiming
Pattern
Projects a crosshair at the center of the laser light beam to
facilitate barcode reading.
Selected
(Enabled)
Picklist Mode When selected, only barcodes aligned at the crosshair of the
laser light beam will be decoded.

(Disabled)
Display Mode Enable improved performance for reading barcodes on
electronic displays and mobile phones.
