Specifications Manual
1. Abstract
This manual provides specifications for the OPR 2001 laser barcode scanner.
2. Overview
The OPR 2001 is a handheld laser barcode scanner. The use of a short-wavelength red laser
beam enhances visibility when scanning lines.
The OPR 2001 can be configured to scan both positive and negative barcodes. Scanned data
is transferred via an RS-232C, USB, or Wedge interface. Auto-trigger settings are available.
The OPR 2001 complies with RoHS.
