Fixed bar code reader Opticon M-11 1D/2D CMOS Wired Black

The Opticon M-11 is an omni-directional fixed barcode reader for countertop or built-in installation, suitable for 1D and 2D scanning. It integrates a high-performance 2D CMOS imager and wired connectivity (USB and RS-232). With a compact footprint and IP42 rating, the M-11 can be embedded in ticketing, parking, POS and identity-document scanning solutions where hands-free or presentation scanning is required.

Advantages

The M-11 offers omni-directional presentation scanning so barcodes and tickets can be read from any orientation. It combines a 2D CMOS imager with automatic or manual triggering, supports BMP and JPEG image output and provides reliable operation with an IP42 ingress protection rating and 1.5 m drop resistance on concrete. Wired connectivity ensures stable data transfer for integration into counters or built-in scanners.

How to use

Install the M-11 as a countertop unit or embed it into a built-in housing according to the mounting requirements of your system. Connect the scanner to your host via USB or RS-232 and configure the interface using the supplied configuration manual or programming barcodes. Place the device on the counter for hands-free operation and present barcodes, tickets or ID documents in front of the imager; the omni-directional reader will capture codes automatically or when manually triggered.

Recommendations

For reliable scanning, keep the imager window clean and avoid direct intense light on the sensor. Use wired USB or RS-232 connections for stable data transfer in POS and ticketing environments. For embedded passport or ID scanning, ensure the unit is mounted at an appropriate height and angle for clear document placement.
