Handheld barcodelezer Opticon OPR2001

The Opticon OPR2001 is a handheld 1D laser barcode reader designed for efficient and reliable scanning in retail, office and industrial environments. It combines a compact, lightweight housing with an ergonomic shape to provide comfortable one-handed operation. The scanner supports up to 100 scans per second and reads common linear (1D) barcode symbologies, using a laser sensor that delivers accurate performance even on low‑contrast prints. The device is available in wired USB, RS232 and Keyboard Wedge interfaces and comes in black or grey finishes.

Advantages

The OPR2001 offers a rapid 100 reads per second rate for fast data capture and consistent accuracy. Its ultra-light 60 g body and ergonomic form factor reduce operator fatigue during extended use. The scanner is built to withstand everyday handling, including drops from up to 1.5 m onto concrete, and carries an IP42 rating for basic protection against dust and water. Multiple connectivity options (USB, RS232, Keyboard Wedge) allow straightforward plug & play integration with a wide range of host systems.

How to use

Connect the OPR2001 to the host system using the required interface (USB, RS232 or Keyboard Wedge). For most systems the device operates as a plug & play scanner; install drivers only if the host requires them. Hold the scanner comfortably in one hand, aim the laser beam at the barcode and pull the trigger or enable auto trigger/stand mode for hands‑free reading. Ensure barcodes are within the scanner’s typical read distance and are presented steadily for the most reliable capture.

Recommendations

For best results, use the OPR2001 on barcodes with adequate contrast and keep the scan window clean. Choose the wired USB option for reliable, low‑latency connections in point‑of‑sale or desktop environments. When frequent hands‑free scanning is needed, pair the scanner with the dedicated stand and enable auto trigger mode.
