Honeywell 3900 User manual

3900
The 3900 is a fixed position linear imager that adds bar code
scanning to kiosks and other OEM applications. The 3900 uses
linear imaging technology to deliver a bright, sharp aiming line, and
fast reading and decoding that makes scanning intuitive and simple.
Bar code scanning at a kiosk is typically done by someone without
scanning experience. The scan line must be easy to see. The
scanner must read quickly, without perfect orientation, and read a
wide variety of bar code labels. Since the bar code is presented
to the scanner, the scanner must have a large working range. The
3900 does all this and more. The 3900 has an automatic trigger
mode for constant scanning, or can be used in a presentation mode,
where the scanner turns on when a bar code is placed in its viewing
area. Scanning can also be controlled by the host computer via
serial commands.
The 3900 has interface flexibility, too. The 3900 can connect via
keyboard wedge, RS-232 serial interface, or into USB ports in IBM-
compatible PCs or Apple computers. Models are available for use
with IBM 4683, 4693, or OCIA retail terminals.
Bright, Sharp and Focused Aiming Line: Easy scanning
by inexperienced users in any lighting condition.
Powerful, Flexible Architecture: Connects and interfaces
to all major PCs and Apple® computers. Windows®-
based programming tools provided for easy setup and
configuration.
