Security Level

The scanner offers four levels of decode security for UPC/EAN bar codes. Increasing levels
of security are provided for decreasing levels of bar code quality. There is an inverse
relationship between security and scanner decode speed, so be sure to choose only that level
of security necessary for any given application.

Security Level 0

This is the default setting which allows the scanner to operate fastest, while providing
sufficient security in decoding "in-spec" UPC/EAN bar codes.

Security Level 0

Security Level 1

As bar code quality levels diminish, certain characters become prone to misdecodes before
others (i.e., 1, 2, 7, 8). If the scanner is misdecoding poorly printed bar codes, and the
misdecodes are limited to these characters, select this security level.
