Specifications Manual
1. Abstract
This manual provides specifications for the NLV 1001 compact fixed-position laser barcode
scanner.
2. Overview
The NLV 1001 is a fixed-position laser barcode scanner.
The scanning width at the closest point of scanning is 44 mm, and the effective scan angle is
44°.
The use of short-wavelength red laser beams enhances the visibility of scanning lines.
The decoded text of barcode images is output through RS-232C, USB, or Wedge interfaces
based on the specification.
