1. About FM-201 Scan Engine
The FM-201 Scan Engine is a small decoder that can read all popular 1D barcodes. This
device is comprised of two main parts: an optical system and a control board. The
optical system is a 2048 pixel linear imager. The control board contains firmware to
scan, decode and output barcode data. The below block diagram shows the data flow
from control board to the host.

The FM-201 Scan Engine is specifically designed for easy integration into your
application devices. The control module supports RS232, Keyboard wedge and USB 1.1
interface.
The control board is based on MCU to fulfill the functions of barcode scanner, image
decoding, parameter settings, and communication with host. The block diagram and
