We recommend testing barcodes at the ranges you expect to use them. Also test in the areas you intend to use the device as lighting is a factor in getting good scans.

-
Decoding Illumination - Turns on/off the light on the scan engine. Use this if you need more light in your environment. Turn this off if you're finding it hard to get a clear scan in a well lit area.
-
Decode Aiming Pattern - Turns on/off the crosshairs. Used for indoor environments where the extra lighting is unnecessary. Turn back on to get a more accurate idea of where the scanner is scanning.
-
Picklist Mode - Narrows the scan engine to focus on whatever barcode is in the middle of the crosshairs. Good to enable when the scanner is picking up the wrong barcode in an area with several barcodes around.
-
Display Mode - Enhances the scanner to be able to pick up barcodes located on another LCD display. Also can help when trying to get accurate scans with shiny label material.
