5.1.19
UPC/EAN Security Level :
Parameter # 0x4D
The SE-955 offers four levels of decode security for UPC/EAN bar codes.
Increasing levels of security are provided for decreasing levels of bar
code quality. Select higher levels of security for decreasing levels of bar
code quality. Increasing security decreases the scanner’s aggressiveness,
so choose only that level of security necessary for the application.
UPC/EAN Security Level 0:
This default setting allows the scanner
to operate in its most aggressive state, while providing sufficient security
in decoding most “in-spec” UPC/EAN bar codes.

UPC/EAN Security Level 2

UPC/EAN Security Level 3
(0x03)
UPC/EAN Security Level 1:
As bar code quality levels diminish,
certain characters become prone to mis-decodes before others (i.e., 1,
2, 7, 8). If mis-decodes of poorly printed bar codes occur, and the mis-
decodes are limited to these characters, select this security level.
UPC/EAN Security Level 2:
If mis-decodes of poorly printed bar
codes occur, and the mis-decodes are not limited to characters 1, 2, 7,
and 8, select this security level.
UPC/EAN Security Level 3:
If misdecodes still occur after selecting
Security Level 2, select this security level. Be advised, selecting this op-
tion is an extreme measure against mis-decoding severely out of spec
bar codes. Selection of this level of security significantly impairs the de-
coding ability of the scanner. If this level of security is necessary, try to
improve the quality of the bar codes.
