Code Reader 1200 CR1200

Code Corporation Code Reader CR1200 is the industry's next generation bar code reader, providing the power of digital imaging technology at the lowest cost. It is simple, fast and affordable! It is also built for cabled ‘point and shoot' omni-directional applications, Code Corporation CR1200 is Code's low-cost addition to its high performance line of bar code readers.
Code Corporation CR1200's unique wide angle lens captures and decodes all bar code types and symbologies. Whether you are reading 1D, 2D, DataMatrix, PDF417, UPC/EAN/JAN, RSS or over 30 other symbologies. Code Corporation CR1200's decode performance is continuously improved with Code's Dynamic Optimization Technology (DOT). DOT is a revolutionary technology which automatically improves decode performance by continuously processing resolution, illumination, and image field settings for the fastest possible symbol identification. Code Corporation CR1200's LED (non-laser) targeting technique utilizes different colored converging LEDs to determine target range. The durable over-molded housing and secured cable make Code Corporation CR1200 uniquely suited for rugged high-use environments. Revolutionary audible, tactile and visual user feedback systems include an advanced speaker, a vibration motor and targeting/status LEDs. The only decision required before ordering is to determine cable type for reader to host communication: USB, RS232 or PS2.

Code Corporation Code Reader 1200 is bar code reading simplicity defined, and its rugged yet lightweight flexibility makes it an ideal reader for all linear and matrix bar code reading applications.

Code Corporation's software development kits provide programming tools enabling preparation of decoded data for acceptance into existing software programs. Document imaging is accomplished with extensive control over field size, gray scale, black/white threshold and graphics compression. Text to data capability is supported via advanced optical character recognition (OCR). Easily integrated with existing processes, software applications and peripherals, Code Corporation CR1200 is the clear choice in bar code readers for future-proofing your operations.

While simple in design and function, the Code Corporation CR1200 is singularly adept in data and image capture and decoding performance, making it the industry's best-in-class bar code reader for production work-in-process, point-of-sale, inventory management, supply chain functions and point-to-point logistics.

A 2D Barcode Scanner can interpret two-dimensional barcodes, which store data in two dimensions, rather than in just a series of black and white bars. 2D barcodes look like checkerboards or a series of traditional barcodes stacked atop one another. 2D Barcode Scanners use both CCD and Imaging technology to read barcodes.
