I NTRODUCTION
Metrologic's IS8000 series scanners bring the benefits of holography to long-
range industrial bar code scanning. Enclosed in rugged NEMA-12 cases for
industrial environments, the IS8000 series provides omnidirectional scanning
with optional no code/wrong code warning. They can be mounted in any
orientation and are capable of primary/secondary setup for added versatility.
There are several IS8000 models to choose from depending on the scanning
application.
¾ The IS8300 produces 5,250 scan lines per second with a depth of field of
457.2 mm (18”)** and a width covering 304.8 mm (12”)**
¾ The IS8400 produces 3,360 scan lines per second with a depth of field of
711.2 mm (28”)* and a width covering 558.8 (22”)*
¾ The IS8500 produces 5,600 scan lines per second with a depth of field of
711.2 mm (28”)* and a width covering 558.8 (22”)*
¾ The IS8800 produces 5,600 scan lines per second with a depth of field of
812.8 mm (32”)* and a width covering 457.2 (18”)*
* The area defined is based conservatively on a 0.33 mm/0.013” bar code
width. Actual scan areas will vary by label size and application.
** The area defined is based conservatively on a 0.25 mm/0.010” bar code
width. Actual scan areas will vary by label size and application.
Several optional features are also available for the IS8000 series including a
hand-held scanner port, Triac output, a high volume external speaker box and
object sensor input with the use of a MX001 industrial control interface. All
scanners can be programmed using Metrologic’s MetroSet
® configuration
program available on CD or downloadable from Metrologic’s web site at
