Decoding
The Dolphin terminal supports two types of image decoding:
Full-area Imaging
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.

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