OCR Programming 14 - 13
OCR Maximum Characters
Parameter # 690
To select the maximum number of OCR characters (including spaces) per line to decode, scan the following
bar code, then scan a three-digit number between 003 and 100 using the numeric keypad in Chapter 16,
Advanced Data Formatting represents the number of OCR characters to decode. Strings of OCR characters
greater than the maximum are ignored. The default is 100.
OCR Security Level
Parameter # 554
To select the OCR decoding security/confidence level, scan the following bar code, then scan a two-digit
number using the numeric keypad in Chapter 16, Advanced Data Formatting represents the level of
confidence. Greater numbers minimize OCR decoding errors but reduce performance. Setting a value that is
too high can result in failure to decode. Setting a value that is too low can cause decoding errors. The range of
the security level is 10 - 90 and the default is 80.
