DESCRIPTION
The DS1100 scanner with decoder offers the best cost-effective solution for
demanding industrial applications.
The DS1100 ultra compact dimensions, based on Datalogic experience in
miniaturized laser components, have been specifically designed to make the
scanner's integration into automated equipment extremely easy.
The Windows-based user-friendly WinHost utility program provided on CD-ROM
simplifies the scanner’s setup. The DS1100 can also be configured from a Host PC
through the Host Mode procedure.
