Symbol DS7708

The DS7708 2D Vertical Slot Scanner provides intuitive, hands-free scanning. The scanner reads all retail symbologies (1D, 2D, printed and electronic ) and has multi-interface capability to interface to all popular POS devices. The scanner can be mounted to a table top or vertical surface such as a wall using optional mounting accessories. With a field of view that is over 50 percent larger than the competition, bar codes are easily captured, regardless of where they are located on an item.

The DS7708 includes an automatic Object Detection wakeup system that provides a high swipe speed and reduces power consumption. The red Illumination has two power levels mode: Idle Mode for object detection and Full Illumination for scanning. When any object is presented in front of the window opening, the red illumination changes from Idle Mode to Full Mode, but automatically returns to Idle Mode when the object is removed. When the object presented in the Field of View includes a bar code, the DS7708 scans the bar code, and if the bar code is successfully decoded, the illumination LEDs automatically return to Idle Mode when the object is removed.

The scanner includes an integrated Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) antenna. The scanner and EAS system can operate independently of each other. The deactivation range is mapped suitable to the scanning range, so both can be accomplished almost simultaneously.
