Abstract
An arrangement for, and a method of, preventing a misread of a one-dimensional symbol that can be read in either one of two polarities in an electro-optical reader. A data capture assembly captures light from the symbol, and generates an electrical signal indicative of the captured light. A controller simultaneously processes and decodes the electrical signal as a first decoded result of one of the polarities and as a second decoded result of the other of the polarities. The controller also determines the validity of the first and second decoded results, and generates an output in dependence upon the validity determination.
