    INTRODUCTION The MS860 WiFi laser bar code scanner is one of the newest members of Unitech’s MS series. The MS860 incorporates the latest WiFi technology, making it ideal for real-time bar code data collection in warehouse, loading dock, inventory, back office, document tracking, retail environments - anywhere cables would restrict movement or limit access.

Easy to use, it is probably the most straightforward method of modifying your MS860’s wireless settings. Because of the wireless communication between the MS860 and the host computer, SCM settings cannot be directly downloaded to the MS860.
