symbology.
Readable Symbology

only and “Disable” on the other symbologies. This will reduce decode processing time and lower
the error rate. The default is “Enable scanning on all the symbologies”.

If only specific no. of digits is to be scanned, specify it for each readable symbology. This will
reduce decode processing time and lower the error rate.

digit will lower the error rate.
