 Low - [default] Lowest error correction level. (Approx. 7% of codewords can be restored).
 Medium - Medium error correction level. (Approx. 15% of codewords can be restored).
 Quarter - Quarter error correction level (Approx. 25% of codewords can be restored).
 High - Highest error correction level (Approx. 30% of codewords can be restored).
