Honeywell MS4980 Barcode Reader User Manual


 
MS4980 Vuquest
Honeywell’s MS4980 compact area-imaging scanner offers aggressive
scanning of all 1D, PDF and 2D bar codes in a lightweight, durable and
portable form factor. The scanner also features a sleek and elegant
design that blends seamlessly in retail environments.
Automatic infrared object detection enables robust and easy
presentation scanning, while patented CodeGate
®
technology provides
precise targeting and scanning of closely grouped bar codes.
The MS4980 delivers an array of advanced features that enhance
productivity. Aggressive reading of bar codes on highly reflective
surfaces, such as mobile phone screens, eliminates the need to
purchase additional specialty hardware. A 1.2 mega-pixel CMOS
sensor allows the scanner to capture high resolution images of
signatures, identification cards and personal checks.
An intelligent multi-interface design distinguishes the MS4980 from
competitive scanners. The scanner has three dedicated memory
banks—each one capable of storing full configurations for RS232,
keyboard wedge and USB interfaces. Automatic cable detection and
configuration simplifies scanner management by eliminating the need
for manual configuration after the change of an interface cable.
TotalFreedom™ expands scanner functionality by allowing image
processing, decoding and formatting plug-ins to be loaded directly to
the MS4980 instead of the host system.
The MS4980 is small enough to be held in the palm or worn on the
back of the hand. Its compact size also allows it be mounted anywhere,
including in self-service scanning kiosks.
