Microscan ID20 Value Barcode Reader
The Omron Microscan 7213-2102-0004 Value Barcode Reader, also known as the MicroHAWK ID-20, is a compact and versatile 2D barcode reader designed for industrial applications. It shares similarities with the 7213-2102-0003 model but with a focus on affordability and optimized for 2D code performance. Here’s a breakdown of its key features:
Imaging and Decoding:
- Image Sensor: 1.2MP CMOS monochrome sensor with global shutter technology captures images for accurate 2D barcode reading.
- Decoding Capability: Primarily excels at handling a wide range of 2D barcode symbologies, including Data Matrix, QR Code, PDF417, and Micro QR Code, through the X-Mode decoding algorithm.
- Decoding Speed: A standard speed of up to 42 frames per second (fps) ensures efficient 2D barcode reading performance.
- 1D Barcode Support: While supporting some common 1D codes like UPC/EAN and Code 39, its performance and reading range might be less reliable compared to dedicated 1D readers.
Performance:
- Reading Distance: Up to 190 mm, providing flexibility in barcode placement and scanning scenarios, similar to the 7213-2102-0003.
- Field of View: Standard High-Density optics offer a good balance for reading range and 2D barcode size compatibility.
Design and Connectivity:
- Compact Design: Maintains the miniature footprint (34mm x 24mm x 39mm) for easy integration into space-constrained environments.
- Single-Cable Solution: Uses a Micro-B USB cable for both power and communication (USB 2.0), simplifying setup and reducing cabling complexity.
- Durable Construction: IP40-rated plastic housing protects against dust and water, ensuring reliable operation in industrial settings.
Additional Features:
- Trigger Modes: Supports both manual and hands-free triggering for flexible operation.
- LED Indicators: Provides visual feedback on scanning status and potential issues.
- User-friendly Configuration: Allows easy customization of settings to match specific application needs.
Overall, the Omron Microscan 7213-2102-0004 Value Barcode Reader is a cost-effective and compact solution for reading primarily 2D barcodes in industrial settings. Its small size, reliable performance, and user-friendly design make it suitable for various tasks, especially where space is limited and 1D code requirements are infrequent or simple.
