2.On the workstation, open Windows Explorer and navigate to the \IPSM folder on the Dolphin terminal.
3.Back up the terminal’s \IPSM folder by copying and pasting its contents to the workstation.
4.Then, on the terminal, delete the entire contents of the \IPSM folder.

Imaging Demo
Overview
The Imaging Demo demonstrates the imaging functionality of the on-board image engine, such as picture formatting, saving and printing.
To Capture Images
1.Tap Start > Demos > Imaging Demo. The Imaging Demo opens.
The screen is blank until you press the SCAN key.
2.Press the SCAN key to activate the image engine. A preview of the image appears on the screen.
The previewed image has a degraded appearance. This is normal. The previewed image is not the same as the captured image; the captured image will not have the same degradation.
3.Release the button or trigger. The captured image appears on the screen.
To Save Images
You can save images two ways: Save and Save As. Save saves one image with a default name. Save As allows you to determine the image parameters.
Save
Tap File > Save. The image remains on the screen and is saved as a grayscale .jpg with the name “imagedemo.jpg” in the My Device folder (\IPSM).
Note: If you take another image and tap File > Save. The new image will save over the existing imagedemo.jpg file.
OR
Save As

Folder |
None - Selecting this option saves files to the My Documents folder. |
Name |
Select the BMP, JPG, or PNG file format. |
Location |
Main memory - Selecting this option saves files to RAM memory, which means the file will |
|
be erased during the next hard reset. |
|
IPSM - Selecting this option saves files to the IPSM memory, which means the file will be |
|
saved through a hard reset. |
To Open Images
1.Tap File > Open.
2.Select the Folder you want to search; All Folders is selected by default.
3.Select the Type of file you want to find.
4.Image files matching the search parameters appear in a list in the lower half of the window.
5.Double-tap on an image file in the list. The image opens in the Imaging Demo.
Note: You can have more than one image open at the same time.
Default Image Settings
By default, captured images are grayscale .jpg files. Captured images use the Normal image profile. If you want to use different parameters, chose a new imager profile. For more information, see Image Profiles on page 2-2.
Image Profiles
The Imaging Demo contains several pre-set Image Profiles. Image Profiles are internal settings that have been customized to capture the best image for the type of object you want to capture.
Normal is the default image profile and determines all the default system settings for images.
