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.
Preferred Symbology
Note: This selection does not apply to OCR.
The 4820/4820i can be programmed to specify one symbology as a higher
priority over other symbologies in situations where both bar code symbologies
appear on the same label, but the lower priority symbology cannot be disabled.
For example, you may be using the imager in a retail setting to read U.P.C.
symbols, but have occasional need to read a code on a drivers license. Since
some licenses have a Code 39 symbol as well as the PDF417 symbol, you can
use Preferred Symbology to specify that the PDF417 symbol be read instead of
the Code 39.
Preferred Symbology classifies each symbology as high priority, low priority,
or as an unspecified type. When a low priority symbology is presented, the
imager ignores it for a set period of time (see Preferred Symbology Time-out on
page 4-16) while it searches for the high priority symbology. If a high priority
symbology is located during this period, then that data is read immediately.
If the time-out period expires before a high priority symbology is read, the
imager will read any bar code in its view (low priority or unspecified). If there is
no bar code in the imager’s view after the time-out period expires, then no data
is reported.
Note: A low priority symbol must be centered on the aiming pattern to be read.
