Abstract
A barcode reader for decoding data from a barcode includes barcode reading hardware, including an image sensor which captures an image of a barcode within a field of view. The barcode reader also includes a processor. The processor executes embedded firmware to operate the barcode reading hardware. The processor also generates decoded data representative of data encoded in the barcode by executing supplemental operating instructions which the barcode reader obtains from a remote configuration server upon power up of the barcode reader. The supplemental operating instructions are distinct from the embedded firmware and include instructions which, when executed by the processor, enable the barcode reader to output the decoded data from the barcode within the field of view.
