Product Overview

TM
The MS5145 Eclipse is a single-line, hand-held laser scanner.
Equipped with Honeywell's patented CodeGate® technology,
Eclipse can be used in a wide variety of applications. CodeGate
technology allows the user toeasily target the desired bar code
and complete the data transmission with a simple press of a
button. This combination makes Eclipse a perfect selection for
menu scanning, point-of-sale, document processing and inventory
control.
With state-of-the-art scanning technology embedded inside, the
MS5145 Eclipse has a longer working range and a wider scan field
than a typical CCD. The width of the scan line grows as the
scanner moves further away from bar codes. In addition, the laser
beam pulses, making lining up bar codes easy and when the
scanner senses a bar code (CodeSense® Mode), the laser beam
automatically switches to scan mode and activates CodeGate to
ensure high-speed scanning and accuracy.
Many standard features are included such as: user configurable
Flash ROM, PowerLink user-replaceable cables, MetroSet®2 and
MetroSelect® configuration, and data editing (parsing).
