- METROLOGIC INSTRUMENTS Scanner Installation and User Guide Eclipse MS5100

INTRODUCTION
The MS5145 Eclipse is a singl e-line, hand-held laser scanne r.
Equipped with Metrologic’s patented CodeGate technol ogy, Eclipse can be
used in a wide variety of applications. Cod eGate technology allows the user to
easily target the desired bar cod e and complete the data transmission with a
simple press of a button. This combination mak es Ecli pse a perfect selection
for menu scanning, point-of-sale, docum ent processing and inventor y control.
With Metrologic’s state-of-the-art scanning technolog y embe dded 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 b ar code (CodeSense™ Mode), the laser
beam automatically s witches to scan mode and activates CodeGate to ensure
high-speed scanning a nd acc uracy.
Many of the standard features include: PowerLink User-replaceable cables, Bits
‘n’ Pieces™ data editing, User Fr ie ndly Programming using MetroSel ect™ bar
codes, or MetroSet 2 Windows-based configur ation utility.
