Outputs a Noread message followed by an additional message (an Image
Definition: Processing Results Code) indicating the reason a symbol failed to
decode.
For example, in the following output: "NOREAD d_1, E_2" d and E are symbology ids for
Datamatrix and UPC respectively. The message means that Datamatrix and UPC are
enabled (and other symbologies are not), and that both failed to decode. The reason for
the failing Datamatrix is 1 and the reason for the failing UPC is 2. The first part of these
numbers (preceding the dot) is the relevant number and interpreted here:
2D Symbologies:
1. Failed to locate symbol (no finder pattern).
2. Failed to locate four corners or failed to qualify user-defined dimension (in pixels).
3. Failed to locate clocks or failed to qualify user-defined orientation (0-359 degree).
4. Failed to validate clocks or failed to qualify user-defined symbol size (clock element
count).
5. Failed to decode symbol.
