Introduction

The MS6720 is the first laser bar code scanner truly to bridge the gap between omnidirectional fixed projection and hand-held scanners. It incorporates fixed projection performance and our patented 20-line scan pattern into a comfortable, ergonomic styling of our popular hand-helds. With this design, Metrologic has engineered a scanner that transcends any other on the market today.

The MS6720 utilizes a unique, patented infrared sensor and control scheme for hands-free projection scanning and fatigue reduced hand-held operation. Whether operators choose to present small items to the scanner or transport the lightweight scanner to bulkier items, the compact size and comprehen-sive scan pattern make the MS6720 the perfect choice for many applica-tions.

The superior performance and features the world has come to expect from Metrologic were packaged into the comfortable case only after tests and approvals by hands of all sizes. With 84 degrees rotation and 10 locking positions through 45 degrees of tilt, the stand for the MS6720 is also ergo- nomically and application friendly. Mounting was designed to provide an adequate distance for scanning between the scanner face and the counter top at all times. When fully tilted, the face of the unit remains a full five inches from the counter. In addition, the modular construction thoughtfully includes a removable wall mount cap.

As with all Metrologic hand-held scanners, the MS6720 features both short- range and long-range activation, user-friendly programming, reliability and versatility. Operators are sure to appreciate the convenience and flexibility of the MS6720, offered at an unbeatable price.
