Getting Started

The PowerScan® 7000 Linear Imager marks a new performance level for handheld scanners. It delivers aggressive read rates and depths of field on 1D and stacked codes. This aggressiveness applies even in challenging reading environments where low lighting conditions and poor quality might make it difficult to read bar codes. You can rest assured your investment will continue to supply years of use by reading any bar codes you require, now or in the future.

Designed for today’s demanding commercial and industrial environ- ments, the scanner offers superior image quality, speed, durability, and the ability to read poor quality bar codes. The unit is comfortable to hold, easy to use, rugged, and excellent for the most demanding applica- tions.
