Handheld USB wand scanner

The UNITECH MS100-NUCB00-SG is a corded pen-style barcode scanner designed for low-volume data entry. It connects via USB and draws power directly from the host, requiring no external supply or driver installation. The lightweight ABS housing survives repeated 1.5-metre drops onto concrete, making it suitable for daily use in libraries, small retailers, or government offices.

Suited for single-barcode capture on paper

This wand excels when operators must select one code from a dense sheet without accidentally scanning neighbours, and it reads extra-wide linear symbols that fixed-width imagers cannot capture. It does not suit high-throughput conveyor lines, hands-free presentation scanning, or any workflow requiring 2D symbologies such as QR codes or Data Matrix.

5-mil resolution decides suitability

The scanner resolves bars as narrow as 0.127 mm (5 mils) and operates at a 1 mm depth of field, so the tip must stay in near-contact with the label. If your barcodes are printed finer than this limit, or if operators need stand-off distance, a different scan engine is required.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the MS100 wand scanner is reading correctly after plugging it in?

Open a text editor and sweep the tip across a printed UPC-A or Code 39 barcode; the decoded digits should appear instantly at the cursor position.

What cables or accessories come with the MS100-NUCB00-SG and what must I source separately?

The package includes the wand scanner with an attached USB cable; no separate cable or power adapter is required because the unit draws 5 V DC from the host port.

Which version of the MS100 should I choose if I only need to read standard 1D retail barcodes?

The MS100-NUCB00-SG model listed here reads all common linear symbologies such as EAN-13, UPC-A, Code 39 and Code 128, so this single version covers standard retail scanning needs.
