DecodingThe Dolphin terminal supports two types of image decoding:
With
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.

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