Redundancy Level

The decoder offers four levels of decode redundancy. Select higher redundancy levels for decreasing levels of bar code quality. As redundancy levels increase, the decoder’s aggressiveness decreases.

Select the redundancy level appropriate for the bar code quality and then scan the appropriate Redundancy Level bar code. Redundancy Level 1
