Delay Before Decoding

Accuracy for capturing the single barcode can be improved by configuring the time on Delay before decoding.

It allows scan engine to decode the targeted barcode after passing time configured on Delay before decoding(sec) so that you will be able to have time to target the single barcode from multiple different barcodes.

In order to configure it,

  1. Go to ScanSetting > Options
  2. Tap Delay before decoding
  3. Select the desired time from 0 to 1 second
