Activating the Engine When a scanning application is open, press the SCAN key to activate the image engine. You can also press one of the side buttons (see page 3-12), which are programmed to activate the image engine in a scanning application by default. Using Demos Demos are software utilities loaded on all Dolphin terminals that demonstrate the advanced features of the terminal. There are two Demos feature the image engine: Image Demo and Scan Demo. To access these demos, tap Start > Demos, • Select Scan Demo to verify decoding, or • Select Image Demo to verify imaging.

engine.
Scan LED
The LED on the right lights red when you press the scan trigger in scanning applications.

Decoding (ALD).
Full-area Imaging
Full-area imaging means that the Dolphin terminal support omni-directional aiming, which
means that a positive read can be obtained from many positions. For details, see

Directional Scanning Positions
on page

ALD
ALD provides fast reading of linear (1D) and stacked linear bar codes (PDF417). For the best
read, the aiming pattern should be centered horizontally across the bar code. When ALD is
enabled, the reader does not read matrix or postal codes.
