Honeywell HF680 is a 2D area-imaging scanner that can easily read various standards of 1D, PDF and 2D Symbologie. With a revolutionary design, this rugged and durable product enhances productivity and performance for the customer.
HF680 features Hybrid Imaging Technology, making it compatible with various LCD and OLED smart-phone screens and paper-based product barcodes. Frequent switching of scanning modes by the user is not required, significantly boosting the decoding range and improving efficiency.
HF680 can scan barcodes on mainstream LCD screens (with brightness level ranges of 10% to 100%) and OLED screens. It can also scan barcodes on paper with a print contrast of at least 20%, as well as barcodes that are highly dense, smudged, or contain complete information despite damage. This product applies to various workplaces, such as manufacturing facilities, medical treatment and healthcare facilities, and retail POSs.
HF680 supports various interfaces, providing plug-and-play simplicity with convenience and speed.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
User-friendly LED lighting design:
The distributive illumination of 18 recessed LED lights in the scan window prevents eye strain. When the product is not in use, lighting will automatically turn off. Lighting stays on when the product is in intermittent use. This ensures the best user experience.
Great decoding performance:
The IR design can deliver accurate and efficient sensing and decoding, effectively preventing repetitive scanning.
Instantly, as the barcode flashes through the scan window, HF680 can capture the image and start decoding, delivering a very smooth decoding experience to the user.
Support for decoding in various extreme conditions:
HF680 can read 3-mil barcodes, barcodes covered with water droplets, bent barcodes, damaged barcodes that contain complete information, lengthy barcodes, highly-dense QR codes, and inverse barcodes.
It can read barcodes on LCD and OLED screens with minimum brightness. When the mainstream smartphone screen's brightness is 10% or more, HF680 can quickly read the barcodes.
It can scan barcodes on paper with a print contrast of at least 20%. Even when the printing quality is too poor, HF680 can still help the user decode at a desirable speed.
Lengthy useful life:
All key components, which are theoretically designed, pass strict testing. In a simulated user environment, the product lasts more than 40,000 hours (or more than three years).
Honeywell provides a warranty period of three years, keeping its customers assured and at ease.
What barcode types does the Honeywell HF680 scanner read?
The Honeywell HF680 is a 2D barcode scanner capable of reading both 1D and 2D barcodes, making it versatile for retail, warehouse, and logistics environments. This dual-capability allows you to scan traditional linear barcodes as well as more complex 2D codes like QR codes and Data Matrix. We offer the HF680 as a hands-free presentation scanner that delivers reliable performance across general duty applications.
Is the Honeywell HF680 a tethered or wireless scanner?
The Honeywell HF680-R1-2RS232-US is a tethered scanner, meaning it connects via a physical cable to your point-of-sale or computer system. The tethered design eliminates battery management concerns and provides consistent connectivity, making it ideal for stationary checkout counters and fixed scanning stations. Available from us with RS232 connectivity for legacy and modern POS systems.
What connectivity options does the HF680 support?
The HF680-R1-2RS232-US model features RS232 serial connectivity, which is standard for many retail and warehouse POS systems. This wired connection ensures reliable data transmission without the latency or pairing issues associated with wireless solutions. Contact us today if you need alternative connectivity configurations or integration assistance with your existing system.
What is the scanning range of the Honeywell HF680?
The Honeywell HF680 is classified as a standard-range scanner, designed for typical point-of-sale and presentation scanning distances. This makes it well-suited for checkout counters, customer service desks, and warehouse receiving areas where barcodes are presented at arm's length. For specific distance specifications or extended-range requirements, visit barcodesinc.com or contact our team for detailed technical documentation.
How does the HF680 charge and what are its power requirements?
The Honeywell HF680 uses contact charging, a straightforward method where the scanner sits in a charging cradle to recharge its battery. This design minimizes wear on charging ports and is ideal for high-volume retail environments where the scanner is regularly docked between transactions. The contact charging system is simple to maintain and provides reliable power management for continuous operation.
What environments and applications is the Honeywell HF680 best suited for?
The HF680 is designed as a general-duty hands-free presentation scanner, making it perfect for retail point-of-sale, customer service counters, and warehouse receiving operations. Its affordable price point combined with solid performance makes it an excellent choice for businesses seeking reliable barcode scanning without premium features. We offer the HF680 to organizations looking for dependable, cost-effective scanning solutions—contact us today to discuss your application needs.
