When a scanning application is open, press the Scan key to activate the image engine.

Dolphin Demos are software utilities loaded on all Dolphin terminals that demonstrate the advanced 
features of the terminal. There are two Demos that feature the image engine: Image Demo and Scan 
Demo.

To access these demos, tap Start > Programs > Demos.

• Select Scan Demo to verify decoding, or
• Select Image Demo to verify imaging.

For more information about Demos, refer to the Dolphin Demos User’s Guide, which is available for 
download from 

.

The Dolphin terminal supports two types of image decoding: full-area imaging and Advanced Linear 
Decoding (ALD).

Full-area imaging means that the Dolphin terminal supports omni-directional aiming, which 
means that a positive read can be obtained from many positions. For details, see 

Omni-

Directional Scanning Positions

 on page 

5-4.

 

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.

Tap Start > Programs > Demos > Scan Demo.

2.

Position the Dolphin terminal over one of the sample bar codes on page 

.

A range of 4–10 inches (10–25 cm) from the bar code is recommended. 

3.

Project the aiming brackets by pressing and holding the Scan key. The Scan LED lights red

.

4.

Center the aimer crosshair over the bar code. The aiming beam should be oriented in line with the 
bar code to achieve optimal decoding; 

5.

When the bar code is successfully decoded, the decode LED lights green and the terminal beeps.
