Introduction
Product Overview
The MS4980 is a high performance area imaging bar code scanner packed into a
small yet rugged form factor. The scanner features a high-resolution CMOS
imaging sensor to deliver excellent omnidirectional 1D, PDF417 and 2D bar code
scan performance, optical character recognition (OCR) and image capture. Built
with small size in mind, the MS4980 includes important features for everyday
scanning operation such as:
IR object detection or manual button activation
High density bar code scanning with a large depth of field
Aggressive mobile phone & LCD scanning
Integrated mounting points
Rugged interface cable connection
Automatic detection and configuration for RS232, USB and Keyboard
Wedge interfaces
Honeywell adds value and functionality to the MS4980 by incorporating our
Flexible Licensing Solution and TotalFreedom™ platform, ensuring that the
product easily aligns the customer’s current and future scanning needs.
Model Interface
Interfaces supported include:
• RS232
MS4980 - 124
Configurable for Keyboard Emulation Mode or Serial Emulation Mode. The default
setting is Keyboard Emulation Mode.
• Keyboard Wedge
• USB
Note: Standard models ship with the ability to read all 1D, PDF and 2D bar
codes. Decoding and functional capability is limited and units will not
support key features including, but not limited to, the ability to decode
PDF, 2D or OCR fonts without proper limited use licenses provided by
Honeywell. If you wish to purchase a limited license for one or more of
the key features not included in the standard unit, please specify at the
time of sale or otherwise contact a customer service representative for
more information.

Maintenance
Smudges and dirt on the unit’s window can interfere with the unit’s performance.
If the window requires cleaning, use only a mild glass cleaner containing no
ammonia. When cleaning the window, spray the cleaner onto a lint free, nonabrasive cleaning cloth then gently wipe the window clean.
If the unit’s case requires cleaning, use a mild cleaning agent that does not
contain strong oxidizing chemicals. Strong cleaning agents may discolor or
damage the unit’s exterior.
