Presentation Performance Mode - Motorola Symbol DS9808 Product Reference Manual

Presentation Performance Mode

Parameter # F1h 8Ah
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
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.
