The MS5145 Eclipse

™ is a single-line, hand-held laser scanner.


Equipped with Honeywell’s patented CodeGate

®

technology, Eclipse can be

used in a wide variety of applications. CodeGate technology allows the user to
easily target the desired bar code and complete the data transmission with a
simple press of a button. This combination makes Eclipse a perfect selection for
menu scanning, point-of-sale, document processing and inventory control.

With state-of-the-art scanning technology embedded inside, the MS5145 Eclipse
has a longer working range and a wider scan field than a typical CCD. The width
of the scan line grows as the scanner moves further away from bar codes. In
addition, the laser beam pulses, making lining up bar codes easy and when the
scanner senses a bar code (CodeSense

®

Mode), the laser beam automatically

switches to scan mode and activates CodeGate to ensure high-speed scanning
and accuracy.

Many standard features are included such as: user configurable Flash ROM,
PowerLink user-replaceable cables, MetroSet

®

2 and MetroSelect

®

configuration,

and data editing (parsing).
