Aiming the Imager
The aiming pattern of the Imager is a cross hair laser beam with bright center dot (see Figure 1-15). The virtual
rectangle made by the cross hair reflects the field of view of the Imager. The aiming pattern is used to position the
bar code within the field of view.

Enter the symbol in any orientation within the virtual rectangle made by the cross hair laser beam, making use of its
omnidirectional reading capability within the entire field of view.

The Imager can also read a bar code presented within the aiming pattern but not centered (see the top bar codes
on Figure 1-17). The bar codes marked with X in Figure 1-17, however, show bar code aiming that may result in no
decode.
