Honeywell MS9540-00-3 Voyager 9540 barcode scanner

Honeywell Voyager 9540 1D Laser Scanner

The Honeywell Voyager 9540 is a corded handheld barcode scanner built around a single-line laser engine. It reads all standard 1D symbologies plus GS1 DataBar codes at up to 72 scan lines per second. The unit ships without a cable, so a compatible interface cable must be sourced separately. Automatic infrared triggering lets the device switch between hand-held and fixed presentation modes when placed in an optional stand.

Suited for 1D retail and logistics workflows

This scanner fits point-of-sale lanes, inventory aisles and library check-out stations that only need linear bar code capture. CodeGate technology adds a push-button transmit function for menu-style scanning where the operator targets a specific code. Buyers who must capture QR codes, Data Matrix or other 2D symbologies should look at an area-imaging model instead. The scanner-only packaging also means anyone without a spare cable will need to order one before deployment.

Laser Emulation interface with 5 VDC power

The scanner communicates through a Laser Emulation interface and draws 165 mA at 5 VDC during operation, dropping to 120 mA in standby. A host port capable of supplying 5 VDC ±0.25 V at those currents is the single specification that decides whether this is the right part. The 650-nanometer laser meets a 5-foot drop rating and weighs 0.32 lb for all-day handheld use.
