Omni-Directional Scanning PositionsThe high-vis aiming pattern frames the bar code to provide you with the best scanningperformance.āNOTE: To achieve the best read, the aiming beam should be centered horizontally across the bar code.The aiming pattern is smaller when the terminal is held closer to the code and larger when theterminal is held farther from the code. Barcodes with smaller bars or elements (mil size) shouldbe read closer to the unit whereas larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read fartherfrom the unit.6.10. Capturing ImagesThe image-capture process is an intuitive, split-second operation for experienced users. Byfollowing basic guidelines, however, new users can easily develop their own technique and, withpractice, quickly learn to adapt to different application environments.Image PreviewWhen the imaging process is initiated, the touch screen displays a preview of theobject. This is a live video image of what the imager is currently viewing and has aslightly degraded appearance compared to the captured image. This is normal; thecaptured image has a higher resolution.File FormatsThe XM5 supports BMP file format only.
