USING DRAGON™ M
The DRAGON™ M series laser gun can be used with either an OM-DRAGON™
cradle or STARGATE™ radio base station to build a Cordless Reading System
for the collection, decoding and transmission of barcoded data.
DRAGON™ M laser guns automatically scan barcodes at a distance. Simply
aim and pull the trigger.
SCAN LINE POSITION
Code scanning is performed along the scan line emitted from the reading
window. This line must cross the entire code.

AIMING SYSTEM
DRAGON™ M provides a programmable aiming system. If enabled, the scan
line emitted from the reading window is preceded by a red spot which must
illuminate the code center to get the best reading performance (see figure
above, c). Once the defined timeout is reached, the red spot disappears and is
followed by the scan line to start the code scanning.

Successful scanning is obtained by tilting the reader with respect to the barcode
to avoid direct reflections that impair the reading performance, see the figure
