2. Introduction

Bar coding is the most common Automated Data Collection (ADC) technology
providing timely, error-free information that can be used to increase productivity,
accuracy and efficiency in the workplace.

The Charged Coupled Device (CCD) technology is a technique whereby a barcode is
photographed, digitized and electronically sampled by built-in photo detectors. The
detectors process the measurement of every bar and space using the number of
adjacent photo detectors which contrast a black mark and a white space. Of all the
hand held bar code scanning devices on the market, the CCD reader is the easiest to
use and most cost effective for the typical business user. To activate the scanner, the
user simply points the scanning aperture towards the barcode, pulls the trigger, and
aims the red beam across the barcode.

The NUSCAN 2100 Handheld Barcode Scanner utilizes a high sensitive CCD sensor.
With a wide service window, the scanner offers an unbeatable first read success rates,
Its built-in hardware decoder means the scanner is able to accurately recognize most
of the popular barcodes in the world.

NUSCAN 2100 has a handy status LED indicator and a programmable beeper which
give users both visual and audio cues about scan sta t us. This further increase
accuracy and efficiency.

With rugged design and ergonomic styling, NUSCAN 2100 also offers superior
reliability and reduces user fatigue.
