Honeywell’s IS3480 is a compact, omnidirectional bar code scanner   that is ideal for integration into original equipment manufacturer (OEM) devices.

IS3480 is a combination omnidirectional and single-line laser bar code scanner. The omnidirectional scan pattern offers outstanding scan performance on all standard 1D bar code symbologies, including GS1 DataBarTM. The button-activated single-line mode aids in scanning items that contain multiple bar codes or when selecting bar codes from menu-style price sheets. In addition, scan lines can be turned on or off individually, allowing complete customization of the scan pattern.

IS3480 is designed for integration into a variety of devices including self- service kiosks, price lookup systems, ATMs, access control, shopping assistant devices, or a host of other OEM devices. The scanner’s main cable connector is located at the top of the unit to facilitate mounting. The auxiliary connector gives users access to several of the I/O signals, providing the flexibility for external hookup of a beeper, trigger button, and LED.

The unique shape of IS3480 allows the unit to be mounted in slim profile systems. In addition, IS3480 features a sweet-spot mode that audibly and visually indicates the best mounting location for optimum scanning in a fixed application. Most importantly, the IS3480 is equipped with powerful and cost saving features such as easy programming, user replaceable cables and upgradeable software that protects your investment.
