Presentation Performance Mode - Motorola DS6878 Product Reference Manual

Presentation Performance Mode

Parameter # 650
Select one of the following Presentation Performance Mode options:
•
Standard Presentation Mode is optimized for general purpose scanning, i.e., reading bar codes from
standard surfaces such as paper labels or hang tags. This mode balances bar code swipe speed (the
speed a bar code can pass through the field of view and still be read) and decode range (distance
between the digital scanner and the bar code) for optimal performance on standard paper-based bar
codes.
•
Enhanced Presentation Mode is also optimized for general purpose (paper-based) scanning but
provides for a faster bar code swipe speed and shorter decode range than
This mode is recommended for applications requiring the highest bar code swipe speed (e.g., automated
scanning) or a reduced decode range (e.g., to better match EAS deactivation range or reduce the
occurrence of inadvertent reads during hands-free operation).
•
Traditional Presentation Mode is optimized for applications that require frequent reading of bar codes
from mobile phones or PC displays. This mode allows more time for the digital scanner to analyze each
bar code, improving performance on challenging bar codes such as those on a mobile phone display
where the backlight has dimmed. This mode is also recommended for applications that include many
truncated or poor quality bar codes. Because swipe speed is reduced, present bar codes to the digital
scanner rather than swiping them when using this mode.
