• ELO part number: E579977

• Power source: from USB port

• Message format: ASCII

• Card speed: 3 to 50 IPS

• Electronics MTBF: 125,000 hours

• Mechanical MTBF: 1,000,000 passes

• Operating current: 30 mA maximum

• Non-operating current: 300 µA maximum

Spea ker Bar

The speaker bar will contain two speakers and a n audio amplifier. The speakers in the
speaker bar will provide improved sound quality and higher volumes over the internal
speakers. The circuitry will be designed such that when the speaker bar is connected to
the POST, the 2 internal speakers will be disconnected.

The optional speaker bar may also come with two optional USB barcode sca nners (1-D
or omni-directional). The barcode sca nner is only an option if the speaker bar is present.
When a scanner is chosen, a USB-SSI (Simple Serial Interface) converter board is
included. Both barcode scanners are powered with the USB interface.
