Percent Decode
NOTE: This parameter factors into the Overall Grade (page 66).
You can set how strict the validator grades each bar code. For
example, setting Percent Decode to 60% means that 60% of the
scanned bar code must be readable for the validator to give the bar
code a passing grade. You can set the Percent Decode parameter
to a percentage value from 0% to 99%. The higher the percentage
value chosen, the stricter the validator grades.

Defects
NOTE: This parameter factors into the Overall Grade (page 66).
You can set how strict the validator grades the irregularities such as
voids and spots found within elements and quiet zones for each bar
code. For example, the Defects default is 21%. This means that if
the bar code and quiet zone defects exceed 21%, the validator
gives the bar code a failing grade. You can set the Defects
parameter to a percentage value from 0% to 100%. The lower the
percentage value chosen, the stricter the validator grades.
