Scanning Options
Smart Raster Mode
When enabled, Smart Raser Mode automatically detects the height of
the PDF417 symbol and expands the raster pattern to cover the
symbol vertically. Change this mode only if the raster pattern cannot
cover a poorly printed symbol. The default is Smart Raster enabled.
Hand–Held Options
Select the scanning pattern.
• Slab raster – In this mode, a trigger pull yields a slab raster
pattern. This is the default.
• Aiming dot – In this mode, a trigger pull creates a bright aiming
dot. The aiming dot helps you to center the pattern while aiming
the scanner, especially in bright light conditions. You can select
aiming dot with either a normal timeout or an extended timeout.
Depending on the selected option, a standard slab raster or an
open raster appears when the dot expires.
• Always raster – When Always Raster is enabled, a trigger pull
causes the scanner to open a full raster pattern. Always Raster
does not exclude aiming dot or slab raster options because a raster
always follows when the aiming dot expires.
