Supplement Scan Voting
The Supplement Scan Voting is the number of times the same UPC/EAN with 2/5 supplement digits has to be
decoded before it is transmitted. It is helpful when decoding a mix of UPC/EAN symbols with and without
supplement digits. This function is effective when you select UPC/EAN with only 2 supplement digits,
UPC/EAN with only 5 supplement digits or UPC/EAN with 2/5 supplement digits. The default value is Level 3.
When you select a higher level, it may impact the reading speed on poorly-printed, low contrast or damaged
barcode labels.
