Getting Started

The 3800 is a high performance linear imaging scanner from Hand Held 
Products. The 3800 marks a new performance level for handheld scanners.  
Linear imaging technology is defined by a bright and sharply focused aiming line, 
high resolution imaging, and fast reading speed.  The 3800 is comfortable to 
hold, easy to use, rugged, and excellent for all general scanning applications.

The 3900 is a fixed mount bar code scanner designed for retail kiosks, 
manufacturing WIP tracking, document processing, or other OEM applications.  
It is a complete decoded output scanner that is easy to integrate.  It 
communicates with PCs or host terminals via keyboard wedge or a serial RS-232 
interface.  The 3900 can be used internally or externally.  The housing provides 
protection from dust, dirt, and electrostatic discharge.

Typical Applications for the 3900

The 3900 is an ideal scanner 
for retail kiosks.  The bright 
aiming line and large working 
range make scanning easy for 
untrained users.

The 3900 mounted in a stand 
makes an efficient bar code 
document reader; it takes up a 
minimum of counter space and 
reads and transmits data 
quickly.

About This Manual

This User’s Guide provides installation and programming instructions for the 
3800/3900.  Product specifications, dimensions, warranty, and customer support 
information are also included.

Hand Held Products bar code scanners are factory programmed for the most 
common terminal and communications settings.  If you need to change these 
settings, programming is accomplished by scanning the bar codes in this guide.

An asterisk (*) next to an option indicates the default setting.
