Honeywell 7850 5100 Green Aiming Beam, Omni-DirectionalScanning, 5300 High-VisAiming Pattern, Laser Engines (HP, LR, and ALR)

Omni-Directional ScanningDolphin terminals support omni-directional scanning.

In general, the aiming pattern or beam is smaller when the terminal is held closer to the bar code and larger when farther from the bar code. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the terminal whereas larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from the terminal.

Note: To achieve the best read, the aiming beam should be centered horizontally across the bar code.

5300 High-Vis Aiming PatternThe red high-vis aiming pattern frames the bar code.5100 Green Aiming BeamThe green aiming beam projects outward in a straight line across the bar code.Laser Engines (HP, LR, and ALR)Laser engines do not support omni-directional scanning.

To achieve a successful scan, the red beam must completely cover the bar code as in the following example:

To avoid specular reflection when scanning (i.e., the glare), do not aim the laser so that the beam is reflected straight back. Instead, aim the laser so that it’s slightly off-center of the target bar code.
