Handheld 2D imager

The Datalogic QuickScan QD2131 is a corded handheld barcode scanner built around a 2D area imager. It connects through a USB interface and draws operating current of 140 mA at 5 VDC. The scanner reads 1D and 2D codes omnidirectionally at up to 270 scans per second.

High-volume checkout use

Retail cashiers and warehouse pack stations benefit from the LED aiming system that reduces visual stress during repetitive scanning. The IP42 sealing and 1.5 m drop resistance suit constant daily handling. Buyers needing wireless freedom or long-range scanning should look at other form factors.

USB-powered 2D imaging

The single specification that decides fit is the corded USB connection combined with a 2D area imager. It requires a host port that can supply 4.75 to 14 VDC and mounts in the included stand for hands-free presentation scanning.

Questions about this item

Will the USB cable or stand need replacing after heavy daily use?

The kit includes a USB cable and stand; no user-serviceable parts are listed, so only the cable or stand would need replacement if physically damaged.

What limits continuous scanning throughput on this 2D imager?

The scan engine is rated at 270 scans per second, which is the maximum sustained capture rate under normal conditions.

How much heat or noise does the scanner produce during all-day operation?

Typical operating draw is 140 mA at 5 VDC with a 50 mA idle current; the LED illumination and imager run silently with no fan, so heat and noise remain minimal.
