Zebra Datawedge – Improve data capture performance

Hi,

Our warehousemen are reporting that the new devices we delivered to them (MC2200, PS20, TC52X) with 2D Barcode Imagers are performing worse than the older MC2100 devices, which had a laser scanner. Upon investigation, we found that the scanner illumination light stays on for a long time before data capture. We have enabled the picklist feature, which has improved aiming, but we're wondering if there are any other best practices for configuring Datawedge.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

 

 

val barcodeProps = Bundle()
barcodeProps.putString("scanner_selection", "auto")
barcodeProps.putString("scanner_input_enabled", "true")
barcodeProps.putString("decoder_code128", "true")
barcodeProps.putString("decoder_code39", "true")
barcodeProps.putString("decoder_ean13", "true")
barcodeProps.putString("decoder_ean8", "true")
barcodeProps.putString("decoder_upca", "true")
barcodeProps.putString("decoder_datamatrix", "false")
barcodeProps.putString("decoder_qrcode", "true")
barcodeProps.putString("decoder_aztec", "false")
barcodeProps.putString("decoder_i2of5", "true")
barcodeProps.putString("illumination_mode", "on")
barcodeProps.putString("scanning_mode", "1")
barcodeProps.putString("instant_reporting_enable", "false")
barcodeProps.putString("picklist", "2")

Hi Stefan,

There are a couple of other small settings which you could play with to see if you can achieve better results.

Normally, you should be able to do that and have the optimal results already with the default settings but sometimes some adjustements needs to be addressed.

I would suggest to take a look at the AIM Type if not already and pick one of them like "Presentation" or "Continuos Read" and see how it goes...

For the other settings you can always check the documentation with every specified preference:
