# 1D Symbology Properties

Short Quiet Zone

The Short Quiet Zone option, when checked, allows some search leniency regarding the quiet zone of the following 1-D symbols: Code 128, Code 39, and Code 93.

Short Height Codes

Checking the Short Height Codes option improves the decoding performance of symbols that are exceptionally short and wide.

Changing Orientation

The Orientation is set to Omnidirectional by default on DM300X, DM503QL, and DM503X readers.

The Orientation is set to Picket Fence (as shown below) by default on DM300L, and DM503L readers.

Code Orientation Disabled

Code Orientation is disabled if the 1D code has been trained with the Train Orientation feature.

Process Control/Code Quality Metrics for data formatting

After you enable 1-D Quality Metrics on the Code Quality pane (feature key required), you can use these on the Metrics tab of the Standard Formatting pane.

The metrics are also accessible through scripts. In case you have not enabled any process control metrics, they return -1.

The reported Process Control/Code Quality Metrics are -1 or NA

When the printing or image quality of the symbol is so poor that the process control metrics can not be measured with a reference decoding algorithm, the reported metrics will be -1 or NA. Improve the printing or image quality by using, for example, the Image Filtering functionality.

This means that your codes must be aligned to this orientation in order for them to be decoded.

Change this orientation to Ladder (as shown below) if your codes are perpendicular to the sensor.

This means that your codes must be aligned to this orientation in order for them to be decoded.

Change this orientation to Picket Fence and Ladder if your codes are either aligned to picket fence orientation or perpendicular to the sensor.

Note that DM300L and DM503L readers only support Ladder and Picket Fence orientations.

1D Data Stitching

Data Stitching enhances reading efficiency by merging and expanding partial reads. The feature is only active if the feature key 1DDataStitching is installed.

Usage Types

The Extended strategy can decode difficult barcodes, but takes longer than the Standard strategy.
