LS2208 Barcode Scanners

Description

A barcode reader, also called a price scanner or point-of-sale (POS) scanner, is a hand-held or stationary input device used to capture and read information contained in a bar code . A barcode reader consists of a scanner , a decoder (either built-in or external), and a cable used to connect the reader with a computer. Because a barcode scanner / reader merely captures and translates the barcode into numbers and/or letters, the data must be sent to a computer so that a software application can make sense of the data. Barcode scanners can be connected to a computer through a serial port , keyboard port, or an interface device called a wedge. A handheld barcode scanner works by directing a beam of light across the bar code and measuring the amount of light that is reflected back.

The wide working range —from near-contact to 17 inches — makes this device ideal for retail, hospital, education or government settings.
