ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method to optimize the configuration of a symbology reader without the need for user intervention. Following a predetermined number of successful decodes, the reader automatically determines the symbology of interest and disables the decoding algorithms not being used. For example, if after four or five successful decodes have occurred and the unit determines that all of the successful decodes were of a single symbology type such as a PDF417 barcode, all other decoding algorithms, with the exception of the PDF417 decoder, will be disabled. Other embodiments may be included which adjust the scan window size and the image capture parameters of the reader based on the symbology of interest.
