Xenon 1900g HD

High Resolution 2D Barcode Scanner

Xenon™ 1900g HD, Honeywell’s sixth-generation of area-imaging technology, is redefining the standard for hand-held scanners. Featuring a custom sensor that is optimized for bar code scanning, Xenon 1900g HD offers industry-leading performance and reliability for a wide variety of applications that require the versatility of area-imaging technology. Powered by Adaptus® Imaging Technology 6.0, Xenon 1900 delivers superior bar code scanning and digital image capture. Xenon 1900 incorporates a revolutionary decoding architecture that combines Adaptus Imaging Technology 5.5 and Omniplanar’s SwiftDecoder® software along with a custom sensor, enabling extended depth of field, faster reading, and improved scanning performance on poor quality bar codes.

  • Custom sensor optimized for bar code scanning improves scanning aggressiveness and protects investment by providing supply chain stability
  • Three focal options (high density, standard range and extended range) provide application-specific scanning, leading to improved productivity
  • Image processing software offers advanced editing functionality — cropping, brightening, rotating, sharpening and more — to produce high-quality digital images
  • TotalFreedom® 2.0 development platform enables the loading and linking of multiple applications on the scanner to enhance image processing, decoding or data formatting functionality, eliminating the need for host system modifications
  • Remote MasterMind® scanner management software provides a quick and convenient solution for IT administrators seeking to manage all scanners within their network from a single remote location
  • Optional disinfectant-ready housing protects investment with durable construction that is better able to resist the harmful effects of harsh chemicals

All 1900’s require an interface cable.

2D BARCODES: The What, Why and How.

2D Barcodes are symbologies that are capable of storing more information than can normally be contained in a conventional linear barcode. These include:

datamatrix | 2d barcodes
DATAMATRIX – a square symbology, of varying densities used extensively in part marking as a large number of characters can fit in a small space:
pdf 417 | 2d barcodes
PDF417 – can be printed at a variety of aspect ratios and densities. Used in transportation, manifests, and personal ID including state driver’s licenses.

Others include AZTEC, MAXICODE, and QR Code. 2D Barcodes can serve as portable data files, enabling the user to access information such as lot processing, shipment manifest, and serial number/sku data remote from the network database.

Codes such as PDF can be read by linear scanners that can rasterize in both axis. Datamatrix is a matrix code and requires an imager reader, which algorithmically processes the image. Imager scanners are effectively digital cameras with integrated processors and therefore can also capture images such as signatures. As with linear barcode scanners, they can interface as keyboard wedges or via a serial port.
