Auto: Switches the illumination from left to right bank.
Left: Enables the left bank, which is on the left when facing the scan window.
Right: Enables the right bank, which is on the right when facing the scan window.
Note: When the ambient light is too dim on the left (or right), you may enable the left
(or right) illumination bank to add lighting.
Decoding Illumination
Decide whether to cause the decoder to flash illumination on every image capture to aid decoding.
Enabling illumination usually results in superior images. The effectiveness of the illumination
decreases as the distance to the target increases.
Decoding Autoexposure
Decide whether to manually specify the gain and exposure time (only recommended for advanced
users with difficult image capture situations). By default, exposure value is set to 10 ms and gain
value is set to 50 when autoexposure is disabled.
For 1504, 1564, and 1664, Decoding Autoexposure is selected (enabled) and isn’t subject to
change.
Fuzzy 1D Processing
By default, this option optimizes decode performance on 1D barcodes, including damaged and
poor quality barcodes. Disable this only if you experience time delays when decoding 2D barcodes,
or in detecting a no decode.
Aiming Pattern
Decide whether to allow the decoder to project the aiming pattern during a barcode capture.
Signature Capture
A signature capture barcode is a special-purpose symbology, which delineate a signature capture
area in a document with a machine-readable format. The recognition pattern is variable so it can
optionally provide an index to various signatures. The region inside the barcode pattern is
considered the signature capture area.
Go to Tools Menu | 2D Image Processing to allow the decoder to capture signature in Decode
Mode. Refer to
Tools Menu.
Width (1~640) & Height (1~480): The aspect ratio of the Signature Capture Width and
Signature Capture Height parameters must match that of the signature capture area. For
example a 4 x 1 inch signature capture area would require a 4 to 1 aspect ratio of width to
height. By default, it is set to 400 and 100 respectively.
File Format: Select an image format for storing captured signatures. By default, it is set to
JPEG.
Bits per Pixel: Select the number of significant bits per pixel (BPP) to use when capturing a
signature. Select 1 BPP for a black and white image, 4 BPP to assign 1 of 16 levels of grey to
each pixel, or 8 BPP to assign 1 of 256 levels of grey to each pixel. By default, it is set to 8
BPP. The decoder ignores these settings for JPEG files, which always use 8 BPP.
JPEG Quality: Specify the JPEG quality value (5~100). By default, it is set to 65.
