Chapter 2 Configuring The Validator
54
Percent Decode
You can set how strict the validator grades each bar code. For
example, the Percent Decode default value is 60%. This means
that 60% of the scanned bar code must be readable for the
validator to give the bar code a passing grade. You can set the
Percent Decode parameter to a percentage value from 0% to 99%.
The higher the percentage value chosen, the stricter the validator
grades.

Defects
You can set how strict the validator grades the irregularities such as
voids and spots found within elements and quiet zones for each bar
code. For example, the default value for Defects is 20%. This
means that if the bar code and quiet zone defects exceed 20%, the
validator gives the bar code a failing grade. You can set the Defects
parameter to a percentage value from 0% to 100%. The lower the
percentage value chosen, the stricter the validator grades.
