    “12345,” and right block “67890.” To maximize its aggressiveness, the scanner is capable of decoding a UPC/EAN symbol by “splicing” together a left block read by one of the 20 scan lines, and a right block read by another.

  • Page 234: Reject Predecode Block

    This option provides additional protection (beyond the embedded check digit) against mis-splicing a UPC/EAN block from a symbol that has just been decoded (but has not completely exited the scanner’s field of view), with a block from a new symbol that has just been presented to the scanner.

  • Page 237 Parameter Menus Decode Options UPC/EAN Security Level Level 1 As bar code quality levels diminish, certain characters become prone to mis-decodes before others (i.e., 1, 2, 7, 8). If you are experiencing mis-decodes of poorly printed bar codes, and the mis-decodes are limited to these characters, select this security level.
  • Page 238 LS 5700/LS 5800 Product Reference Guide Decode Options UPC/EAN Security Level Level 2 If you are experiencing mis-decodes of poorly printed bar codes, and the mis-decodes are not limited to characters 1, 2, 7, and 8, select this security level.
  • Page 239 Parameter Menus Decode Options UPC/EAN Security Level Level 3 If you have tried Security Level 2, and are still experiencing misdecodes, select this security level. Be advised, selecting this option is an extreme measure against mis-decoding severely out of spec bar codes. Selection of this level significantly impairs the decoding ability of the scanner.

The range is from two to thirty times. Ten or above is recommended when decoding a mix of UPC/EAN symbols with and without supplementals.

  • Page 245: Upc/Ean Decode Performance

    Parameter Menus Decode Options UPC/EAN Decode Performance This option offers three levels of decode performance or “aggressiveness” for UPC/EAN symbols without supplementals. Increasing the performance level reduces the amount of required bar code orientation, which is useful if you are scanning very long and/or truncated bar codes. Increased levels reduce decode security.
