Datalogic Heron "G" Long Range CCD Scanner

Back to Home page

Datalogic is proud to introduce the Heron™ G, the new Datalogic hand-held reader developed to provide high performance with an appealing design. The result is a gun shaped reader that is compact, robust, easy to handle and lightweight. Its simplicity of use and ergonomics make it suitable for retail, commercial and office applications. The Heron™ G is based on Datalogic’s core technology, CCD, which is unsurpassed for reading in retail applications. The CCD reader is also provided with a green spot (Datalogic patent) guaranteeing good reading feedback directly on the code, which is very useful in noisy environments. A single multi-interface model (Wedge, USB, RS232 and Wand) provides flexibility and full compatibility with the different systems by simply replacing the plug-in cables. The Heron™ G, like all the Datalogic barcode readers, has undergone a variety of tests to assure that it can withstand daily use in standard operating environments. The tests done in Datalogic’s research departments and quality assurance laboratories result in a reader that is long lasting and meets all the requested quality standards in the market. In addition, Heron™ G reads Reduced Space Symbology (RSS), an emerging symbology that can be printed on smaller labels, meeting emerging market needs for a larger amount of data on a single code.
