USING LYNX™ BT
The field of view created by the aiming system will be smaller when the Lynx™ is
closer to the code and larger when it is farther from the code. Symbologies with
smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies
with larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from the unit. (See
chapter 7 for further details).

NORMAL OPERATION

Lynx™ normally functions by capturing and decoding codes.
Point the reader at the target and pull the trigger partially to enable the aiming
system. Then, pull it completely to capture and decode the image. The reader will
repeatedly flash until the symbol is decoded or timeout is reached. In between the
flashes of the reader, the aiming system keeps on showing the field of view on the
target (see Figure 7
).
As you are reading code symbols, adjust the distance at which you are holding the
reader.
The LYNX™ hand-held reader aiming system is designed for general
reading and decoding of 1D and 2D symbols. Some variation in
reading distance will occur due to narrow bar width and other factors.
NOTE

IMAGE CAPTURING

Lynx™ can also function as a camera by capturing images of labels, signatures, and
other items.
In order to capture an image, the user should read a Capture Image code (see par
0), then point at the image subject and pull the trigger. This way, the image will be
captured and sent to the host PC. Lynx™ then returns to normal operation. To
capture another image you must read another Capture Image Code of the same or a
different Preset Configuration.
You can use the aiming system to position the reader from the object (ensure the
reader is about centered over the target). Adjust the distance at which you are
holding the reader (see Figure 7).
If the RS232 interface has been selected, the image will be transferred to the host
PC via XMODEM_1K protocol.
