INTRODUCTION
The MS5145 Eclipse is a single-line, hand-held laser scanner.
Equipped with Metrologic’s patented CodeGate technology, Eclipse can be
used in a wide variety of applications. CodeGate technology allows the user to
easily target the desired bar code and complete the data transmission with a
simple press of a button. This combination makes Eclipse a perfect selection
for menu scanning, point-of-sale, document processing and inventory control.
With Metrologic’s state-of-the-art scanning technology embedded inside, the
MS5145 Eclipse has a longer working range and a wider scan field than a
typcial CCD. The width of the scan line grows as the scanner moves further away
from bar codes. In addition, the laser beam pulses making lining up bar codes
easy, and when the scanner senses a bar code (CodeSense™ Mode), the laser
beam automatically switches to scan mode and activates CodeGate to ensure
high-speed scanning and accuracy.
Many of the standard features include: PowerLink User-replaceable cables, Bits
‘n’ Pieces™ data editing, User Friendly Programming using MetroSelect™ bar
codes, or MetroSet 2 Windows-based configuration utility.
