Accu-sort AdaptaScan
Medium Range Laser Bar Code Scanner
 |
Typical Applications
|
Accu-Sort’s lowest cost scanning solution for embedded and material handling applications. The unparalleled flexibility of the AdaptaScan makes it ideally suited for installations where several different scanner configurations are required under one roof. Using the Windows®-based configuration software, scan pattern, focus and communication changes can be made to the AdaptaScan on-site in a matter of minutes, enabling the stocking of a generic spare to support many different applications.
The detachable wiring base provides watertight strain reliefs for cable entry, and terminal blocks for all electrical connections. This simplifies field wiring and allows the scanning unit to stay out of harmís way during the installation process. When ready for use, the scanning unit plugs onto the wiring base and mounts with four screws, completing the NEMA 4 rated cast-aluminum enclosure.
The AdaptaScan has an extensive array of interfacing options, including DeviceNet, DH-485, DF1, and RS-232/422/485. An array of AdaptaScans can be used in a peer-to-peer arrangement to allow for the sharing of input and output signals, and the routing of bar code data through one specific unit, eliminating the need for a separate multiplexer in many applications.
