Barcode Scanner CIPHERLAB 8200 Laser Batch 4M 24-Key

The CIPHERLAB 8200 Laser Batch 4M 24-Key is a handheld barcode scanner designed for batch data capture with a laser reading engine and a 24-key keypad. It supports offline storage of scan records and later transfer to a host system, enabling portable scanning operations without continuous connection. The scanner’s laser optics provide a reading range up to 4 meters for standard 1D barcodes, making it suitable for inventory counting, shelf audits, receiving and backroom operations where extended reach and manual data entry are required.

Advantages

The device combines a long-range laser scanner with an integrated 24-key keypad to allow both rapid barcode capture and manual entry of quantities, item IDs or location codes. Offline batch storage reduces dependency on constant wireless connectivity and helps prevent data loss during mobile tasks. The handheld design and straightforward controls make it usable for extended periods in warehouse and retail environments while the laser engine maintains reliable performance on standard linear barcodes.

Suitable for

• Inventory counting and stocktaking in warehouses and storerooms
• Shelf audits and price verification in retail environments
• Receiving, put-away and shipment preparation where scanning out of reach is required
• Field operations that require offline data capture and later synchronization
• Processes that combine barcode scanning with manual keyed input

Key specifications

• Scanning technology: laser-based 1D barcode reader
• Maximum reading range: up to 4 meters on standard 1D barcodes
• Keypad: 24-key alphanumeric keypad for manual data entry
• Data handling: internal batch storage for offline scans and later transfer
• Form factor: handheld, ergonomic design for extended use

How to use

Power on the scanner and configure the capture settings according to the host system or local workflow. Aim the laser at the barcode so the beam crosses the bars and trigger the scan; confirmation typically appears via an audible beep or indicator. Use the 24-key keypad to enter quantities, location identifiers or corrective input when barcodes are partially damaged or when additional data is required. Save scans to internal memory during the shift and connect the scanner to the host system or docking station to transfer batch data when convenient.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-range performance, ensure the barcode surface is clean and oriented within the scanner’s line of sight. Use the keypad to verify or supplement scanned data immediately if a barcode read is uncertain. Regularly transfer stored scans to the host system to minimize the risk of memory overflow and to keep inventory records up to date.
