Setting Up the LS 2106

Introduction

The LS 2106 hand-held laser scanner offers excellent performance in retail and light

industrial applications. Advanced ergonomic design ensures comfortable use for extended

periods of time.

The LS 2100 Series hand-held scanner is based on the SE 1200 Series scan engine, mylar

scan element and the Visible Laser Diode (VLD). This state of the art technology gives the

scannera wider decodezone,greater depth ofﬁeld,and a visiblescan beam. Thismodelreads

color bar codes and symbols printed on all substrates. See the

LS 2106 Decode Zone

on page

2-4.

Here’s what each member of the LS 2100 family offers you:

LS 2100 - The aggressiveness of this discrete scanner is typical of the

LS 2100 family’s performance. It connects easily to, and is programmed by, the

complete line of Symbol Technologies portable terminals and the full range of

Symbol and OmniLink

interface controllers.

LS 2104 - With a simple cable change, this scanner is compatible with:

RS 232C asynchronous terminals

Synapse

“Smart Cables”, which allow you to connect to:

Wand Emulation terminals

IBM 4683/4, 4693/4 series of terminals

All leading OCIA terminals, including NCR, Nixdorf, and ICL terminals.

Dual RS-232 Hosts

Popular OCR terminals, such as Fujitsu and ICL.

LS2106-TheLS2106scannerisakeyboard“wedge”interfacewhich adds efﬁcient,

reliable bar code reading to your PS/2 or AT/XT terminal. Since entered scan data is

transmitted as keystrokes, no software changes to the host system are necessary. The

scanner contains on-board discrete keyboard wedge communications for connecting

to asynchronous terminals and host systems. It can also accommodate any of the

Synapse™ “Smart Cables” which allows you to connect to a wide variety of host

systems. Some installations require one cable; others require additional adapters

between the keyboard, the PC, and the y-cable.

All of the LS 2100 series scan automatically at the rate of 36 scans per second. For decode

capability, see

Technical Speciﬁcations

on page 3-3.
