AL5010 Scan Head
The AL5010 Scan Head incorporates the optics and laser module(s) for
scanning barcodes as well as the decoding engine and parameter storage
module. The control panel provides several LED status indicators and three
function buttons.
There are five models of the AL5010 Scan Head (each available with
optional adjustable raster):
 One-laser models for standard and high-density
 Two-laser models for standard, near-focus high-density and high-density
An optional Adjustable Raster (adjustable up to 20-degrees above or below
