EVOlution™ displays an error message in the scan report after scanning barcodes
This issue can be fixed by improving the tube positioning, barcode quality, or software settings.
If the PosID3 barcode reader is about to read the barcodes of sample tubes, microplates, or reagents, and the expected barcode is missing or is not readable, the following message appears:
This issue may be caused by either a hardware or software issue.
Usual root causes

3) Check the print quality and surface of the label and retry with a new barcode.
4) Check if the barcode type has been configured in the application settings.
