Handheld barcode reader Honeywell 1962GSR-2USB-5BF-R 1D/2D Black

The Honeywell 1962GSR-2USB-5BF-R handheld barcode reader supports both 1D and 2D codes and is part of the Xenon Ultra family of scanners. It offers wired connectivity via USB (and standard interfaces including RS-232), an IP52 rating for durability, and operates on a voltage range of 4.4–5.5 V. Compact and lightweight, the scanner is designed for reliable high-density barcode capture with a green-dot LED aimer, warm-white illumination and IR capabilities to reduce false activations.

Advantages

The device provides industry-leading scan performance with the ability to read ultra high-density barcodes (down to very small element sizes) thanks to warm-white illumination and high print contrast sensitivity. The green-dot LED aimer simplifies targeting, improving scan accuracy and speed in high-throughput environments. Integrated IR controls reduce unwanted activations by enabling illumination only when needed, narrowing the difference between point-and-shoot and hands-free modes. Wired connectivity ensures stable, low-latency data transfer for POS and scan-intensive applications.

Suitable for

• Retail checkout and point-of-sale scanning
• Inventory and stock management in warehouses
• Healthcare and pharmaceutical barcode verification
• Manufacturing and logistics where high-density codes are used

How to use

Connect the Honeywell 1962GSR-2USB-5BF-R to your host device using the supplied USB cable or other supported interface. Aim the green-dot LED aimer at the barcode and pull the trigger or use the configured activation method; the warm-white illumination and advanced optics will capture 1D and 2D codes, including high-density barcodes. For hands-free operation, mount the scanner in an appropriate holder or apply a system configuration that enables continuous or triggered scanning modes via the host.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep the scanner lens and aimer area clean, match host interface settings to the chosen connection (USB or RS-232), and use the IR setting to limit illumination when scanning in environments where accidental activations may occur. Follow workplace ergonomics for frequent scanning tasks to reduce user fatigue.
