1D Scanner Honeywell MS7120 Orbit Black USB 5V 400g

The Honeywell MS7120 Orbit is a hands-free omnidirectional 1D laser scanner designed for retail and point-of-sale environments where counter space is limited. Its compact, award-winning design supports both hand-held and presentation scanning of large or bulky items. The scanner connects via USB, operates at 5 V, and weighs approximately 400 g.

Advantages

The MS7120 offers a 20-line omnidirectional scan pattern for fast, aggressive decoding in presentation mode and a single-line mode selectable by button for targeted scanning such as menu bars. An adjustable scan head tilts up to 30° to accommodate larger items or to improve targeting. Firmware is user-updateable via Flash ROM using MetroSet2 software. The unit also supports simultaneous EAS tag deactivation and barcode decoding.
