ISO filter
ISO filter checkbox
Set the checkboxEnables the
ISO carriage
ISO carriage numbers filtering. When reading a number that consists of 11 symbols, the recognition module will attempt to read the ISO code (examples of ISO codes: GB4310, 22G1)

checkbox
Set the checkboxEnables the long numbers filtering. If the video image does not contain
the carriage
the carriage number, but contains some other text, the recognition module can display a
false carriage
false carriage number. The long numbers filtering reduces the likelihood of the false
numbers
codes appearing, increases the runtime (by about 5%), and degrades the recognition of
the carriage
the carriage codes on the images with
