Honeywell Model 9700-HB Manuel D’Utilisation

The terminal supports two types of image decoding for use in various bar code reading and imaging 
applications: full-area imaging and Advanced Linear Decoding (ALD).

Full-area imaging provides omni-directional reading of linear and non-linear 1D and 2D bar codes, OCR, 
signature capture, and picture taking. When reading all bar code types using full-area imaging, a positive 
read can be obtained from many positions; see 

the aiming beam should be centered horizontally across the bar code. 

ALD provides fast reading of linear and stacked linear bar codes. To achieve a positive read when reading 
linear 1D and PDF417 bar codes, the green aiming beam should be centered horizontally across the bar 
code. When ALD is enabled, the reader does not read matrix or postal codes.

The aiming beam should be oriented in line with the bar code to achieve optimal decoding. A range 
of 4-10 inches (10-25 cm) from the bar code is recommended.
