Excellent
Performance and Superior Ergonomics at an Affordable Price
At the high end of Symbol's "Smart
Line" of ergonomically designed hand-held scanners, the Symbol HotShot LS
2208
Scanner Series are the best-value hand-held scanners in their class. HotShot's
scanning, host connectivity, and software feature set is ideal for a wide range of
specialty hand-held laser scanning applications, such as video rental establishments,
music/CD stores, sporting goods, office automation functions, or as an attachment to a
portable terminal for inventory and/or mobile applications.
Continuing the Symbol tradition of award-winning design, the
HotShot scanner is comfortable and easy to use, even for extended time periods.
Weighing less than six ounces/168 gm, the HotShot's optimal handle size and
soft-touch trigger minimize operator fatigue and boost productivity. Backed by the trusted
Symbol name, HotShot offers the same high quality and consistent reliability that
users have relied on for over 20 years.
- Ergonomic "aim-and-shoot" design is intuitive to
use and minimizes operator training.
- HotShot's excellent scanning range and large
"sweet spot" reads UPC/EAN bar codes from contact to 11 inches/27.8 cm, and 5
mil high-density bar codes from 0.5"/1.3 cm to 2.5"/6.4 cm.
- The heart of the HotShot Scanner is Symbol's acclaimed
SE 1200 Series Scan Engine. Advanced bar code reading capability includes a variety of bar
code sizes, and even poorly printed and low-contrast symbols.
- Symbol's patented Mylar scan element eliminates wear
providing years of dependable performance, and uses less power, extending battery
life in portable applications.
- In addition to the onboard RS-232 or Keyboard Wedge
interfaces, Symbol's exclusive Synapse "Smart Cable" offers connectivity
to virtually any host type by a simple cable change.
- HotShot's gold-coated optics increase first-pass read
rates in a variety of lighting conditions.
- Protective elastometric rubber overmolds absorb impact,
provide easy pickup and prevent the HotShot from sliding off the counter,
allowing for years of durable and reliable scanning service.
- Optional Hands-Free Stand is available for fixed-mount
scanning of smaller items, especially useful at the point of sale.
