Barcode Scanner Honeywell Orbit MS7120 Kit RS-232

The Honeywell Orbit MS7120 Kit RS-232 is a compact hands-free omnidirectional barcode scanner designed for retail and point-of-sale environments where counter space is limited. The MS7120 combines an award-winning industrial design with a 650 nm laser diode that accurately reads 1D and GS1 barcodes. The kit includes an RS-232 cable for straightforward connection and supports a tilt angle range of 0–60° with a maximum operating distance up to 1.2 m.

Advantages

The Orbit MS7120 provides reliable omnidirectional scanning in a small footprint, allowing both hands-free presentation scanning and handheld scans of large or bulky items. Its compact dimensions (102 x 105 x 150 mm) and lightweight construction (0.4 kg) make it easy to position on crowded checkout counters. The device is certified to FCC Part 15, ICES-003 and EN55022 B standards, ensuring electromagnetic compatibility for commercial use.

Suitable for

• Retail and convenience store checkouts
• Point-of-sale counters with limited space
• Scanning large or bulky products by lifting from the base
• Integrations requiring RS-232 connectivity

How to use

Place the Orbit MS7120 on the checkout counter and connect it to the host system using the supplied RS-232 cable. For hands-free scanning, present items in front of the omnidirectional scan window within the recommended operating distance. For larger or bulky items, lift the scanner from its base and perform handheld reads. Adjust the tilt angle as needed within the 0–60° range to optimise scanning orientation.

Recommendations

Position the scanner so the scan window faces the typical presentation path of items and keep the window clean from dust and smudges. Use the RS-232 connection for legacy POS systems or when a serial interface is required; verify host settings and cable pinout during installation.
