2.9 Decode Search Mode
There are three selectable decode (scanning) modes:
Full Omnidirectional - Searches for bar code features beginning at the center of an image, and
searches to the images limits. This mode reads all symbologies , in any orientation. The Full
Omnidirectional search is very thorough which may slow performance time.
Note: This search mode is the default setting
Quick Omnidirectional - This is an abbreviated search for bar code features around the center region
of an image. This mode quickly reads all symbologies in any orientation. The Quick Omnidirectional
mode may miss some off-center symbols, as well as larger Data Matrix and QR Code symbols.
Advanced Linear Decoding - Performs quick horizontal linear scans in a center band of the image.
This mode is not omnidirectional, but does quickly read linear and stacked bar codes. Advanced
Linear Decoding cannot read 2D, OCR, or Postal symbols.
2.10 Output Sequence Overview
Require Output Sequence
When turned off, the bar code data will be output to the host as the Imager decodes it. When turned
on, all output data must conform to an edited sequence or the Imager will not transmit the output data
to the host device.
Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection is turned on.
