Compact Bluetooth Laser Scanner

The Opticon OPN-2006 is a pocket-sized 1D laser scanner that pairs over Bluetooth with Android, iOS, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, PC or Mac devices. It weighs 1.0 ounce and measures 2.44 by 1.26 by 0.63 inches, so it fits on a keychain or in a pocket. A 100 scans-per-second engine captures barcodes in real time. The scanner ships with a USB charging cable and a neck lanyard.

Pairing and Power in a Build

The scanner uses HID and SPP Bluetooth profiles, letting it act like a keyboard or a serial port without extra drivers. Its rechargeable lithium-ion battery charges over the supplied USB cable, freeing a wall outlet. Onboard memory of 512KB FlashROM, 96KB RAM and 1MB external FlashROM stores scans when the host is out of range. An SDK is available to tailor scanning behaviour for custom mobile or desktop apps.

Suited for Mobile Workflows

This unit suits field staff, retail associates or inventory teams who need a lightweight scanner that works with phones, tablets and laptops already in use. It is not for users who must read 2D codes such as QR or Data Matrix. It is not for environments that require a rugged IP-rated housing or a dedicated charging cradle. Buyers needing batch-mode scanning without a live Bluetooth link should consider a different form factor.

Questions about this item

How many scans can the 100 scans-per-second laser perform before the 96KB RAM fills up?

The 96KB RAM buffers scanned data during real-time Bluetooth transmission to the paired device, so sustained scanning is limited by the connection speed rather than the memory size.

Does the 1.0 ounce scanner become warm or noisy during all-day operation?

The laser scanner has no moving parts and draws minimal power from its lithium-ion battery, so it stays cool and silent during continuous use.

Which Bluetooth profiles must my device support to pair with the OPN-2006?

Your device needs either the HID or SPP Bluetooth profile, both of which are standard on Android, iOS, Windows and Mac systems.
