MS4980 Vuquest

Honeywell’s MS4980 compact area-imaging scanner offers aggressive 
scanning of all 1D, PDF and 2D bar codes in a lightweight, durable and 
portable form factor. The scanner also features a sleek and elegant 
design that blends seamlessly in retail environments. 

Automatic  infrared  object  detection  enables  robust  and  easy 
presentation scanning, while patented CodeGate

®

 technology provides 

precise targeting and scanning of closely grouped bar codes. 

The  MS4980  delivers  an  array  of  advanced  features  that  enhance 
productivity.  Aggressive  reading  of  bar  codes  on  highly  reflective 
surfaces,  such  as  mobile  phone  screens,  eliminates  the  need  to 
purchase  additional  specialty  hardware.  A  1.2  mega-pixel  CMOS  
sensor  allows  the  scanner  to  capture  high  resolution  images  of 
signatures, identification cards and personal checks.  

An  intelligent  multi-interface  design  distinguishes  the  MS4980  from 
competitive  scanners. The  scanner  has  three  dedicated  memory 
banks—each  one  capable  of  storing  full  configurations  for  RS232, 
keyboard wedge and USB interfaces. Automatic cable detection and 
configuration simplifies scanner management by eliminating the need 
for manual configuration after the change of an interface cable.

TotalFreedom™  expands  scanner  functionality  by  allowing  image 
processing, decoding and formatting plug-ins to be loaded directly to 
the MS4980 instead of the host system.

The MS4980 is small enough to be held in the palm or worn on the 
back of the hand. Its compact size also allows it be mounted anywhere, 
including in self-service scanning kiosks.                                                                                         

Area-Imaging Scanner

• 

Aggressive Pass-Through Scanning: Enhances 

productivity by enabling cashiers to capture bar codes 

moving rapidly past the scan window

• 

Flexible Licensing Solution: Meets diverse scanning 

requirements by offering models with limited decoding 

capabilities—purchase decoding licenses to enable 

additional functionality as the need arises 

• 

Infrared Object Detection: Minimizes operator fatigue by 

providing hands-free presentation scanning  

• 

Intelligent Multi-Interface Design: Provides automatic 

cable detection and configuration, reducing overall 

system costs

• 

CodeSelect™: Scans up to 7 bar codes in a single flash 

and outputs data in any predetermined order

• 

TotalFreedom: Expands scanner functionality by 

allowing image processing, decoding and formatting 

plug-ins to be loaded directly to the scanner instead of 

the host system

• 

Wide Field of View: Excels at scanning wide bar codes 

and OCR fonts close to the face

• 

Mobile Phone Reading: Scans bar codes directly from 

the screen of a mobile device
