Specify Decoding Area
If Specific Area Decoding is enabled, the scanner only reads barcodes that intersect the predefined
decoding area.
The default decoding area is an area of 40% top, 60% bottom, 40% left and 60% right of the scanner's
field of view, as shown in the figure below. In the following example, the white box is the decoding area.
Since Barcode 1 passes through the decoding area, it will be read. Barcode 2 does not pass through the
decoding area, so it will not be read.
You can define the decoding area using the Top of Decoding Area, Bottom of Decoding Area, Left of
Decoding Area and Right of Decoding Area barcodes as well as numeric barcode(s) that represent(s)
a desired percentage (0-100). To learn how to program decoding area, see Appendix 5.
