For Data Matrix symbols, sets the
finder "L" pattern, with the example
to the right showing the default 0

Default: 0
Options: 0 to 359
Note: A symbol's orientation can miss the precise Orientation Value by several degrees
and still be qualified. To be certain of the extent of the allowable tolerance, you should
experiment with symbols in various orientations. In no case can they be more than 45°
from the assigned orientation value and still be qualified.
