Parameter Default Value: Level 1
Note: Parameter does not apply to Code 128.
Use this parameter to determine the security level appropriate for barcode quality. The security
level indicates how many times the barcode must be successfully read by the scanner before being
decoded.
There are four security levels. Higher security levels are selected for decreasing levels of barcode
quality. As security levels increase, the scanner’s aggressiveness decreases.
Select an option by scanning one of the barcodes shown below. If you wish to change your
selection, scan Cancel.
