Microscan ID20 Value Barcode Reader
The Omron Microscan 7212-1190-0004 Value Barcode Reader, also known as the MicroHAWK ID-20, is a compact and high-performance barcode reader designed for various applications. This includes embedded systems, work-in-progress (WIP) traceability, and general barcode reading. It also offers a blend of size, performance, and affordability in a user-friendly package:
Key Features:
- Compact Design: Measuring only 34mm x 24mm x 39mm, it’s one of the smallest full-featured barcode imagers available, making it ideal for space-constrained environments like robots, drones, and embedded systems.
- High-Resolution Imaging: Equipped with a 1.2MP SXGA CMOS sensor (1280 x 960 pixels), it captures detailed images for accurate reading of even small, complex, or damaged barcodes.
- Versatile Decoding: Reads various 1D and 2D barcode symbologies, including UPC/EAN, Code 39, Code 128, QR Code, Data Matrix, and more.
- Moderate Read Range: Reads barcodes from a distance of up to 190mm. Thus suitable for scanning items close to the reader or in tight spaces.
- Fast Processing: Decodes barcodes at up to 42 frames per second, ensuring efficient data capture.
- Single-Cable Solution: Uses a Micro-B USB port for both power and communication (USB 2.0 and Ethernet over USB), simplifying integration and reducing cable clutter.
- Durable Construction: IP40-rated for protection against dust and water, allowing use in industrial settings.
- Plug-and-Play Functionality: Easy to set up and use without complex configuration.
Additional Notes:
- This model is a good choice for applications where compactness, affordability, reliable barcode reading, and network connectivity are essential, particularly in space-constrained environments.
- It’s often used in retail, manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare settings where network integration and space efficiency are important.
- While not the most rugged option, its IP40 rating allows use in moderately dusty or moist environments.
- Compared to other models in the 7212-1190 series, it offers the same core features with the addition of Ethernet over USB for network connectivity, making it more versatile for networked environments.
Overall, the Omron Microscan 7212-1190-0004 Value Barcode Reader is a versatile and user-friendly option for space-constrained applications and general barcode reading tasks, offering a good balance between size, performance, affordability, and the added benefit of network connectivity through Ethernet over USB.
