Physical Overview
The Honeywell EDA61K barcode scanner is designed with comfort and convenience in mind. Its weight is strategically distributed throughout the device, making it remarkably well-balanced and easy to handle. The EDA61 scanner can be used for long hours with minimal fatigue.
The EDA61 scanner comes in a phone-sized form factor. It supports a pistol-style scan handle and a hand strap, enabling users to customise the device to match their needs for superior performance and comfort. However, please note that the hand straps and scan handles are not included and must be purchased separately as add-on accessories.
Front View
The front of the scanner houses a 4-inch sunlight-readable coloured LED display and a keyboard (model dependent).
Above the LED display, you’ll find two coloured-coded LED lights, namely, a scan indicator and a power indicator.
The scan indicator LED indicates the imager’s read status when scanning a barcode. It has two colours,
- Steady green – Indicating a good read of a barcode
- Steady red – Indicating a failed barcode scan
The scan indicator LED also provides a visual indication of the battery level.
Below the LED touch panel, you will find a numeric or an alpha-numeric keyboard (model dependent). This physical keypad allows users to input data while scanning barcodes.
On the keypad, you’ll also find a power button for turning the device on and off and a noise-cancellation microphone.
Back View
On the back of the scanner, you’ll find a laser safety label location containing the label that warns of the laser radiation emitted by the scanner. Below the laser safety label, you’ll find the camera lens and flash (model dependent), two speakers and a battery latch and button.
By pressing the battery latch, you will gain access to the rechargeable battery. Below the battery, you will find a SIM card slot and microSD card door, where you can insert micro SIM cards and storage cards, respectively.
Top View
At the top of the device, you’ll spot an imager window (LED / laser aperture). Inside the window, you’ll find the scan engine, which generates and receives the scan beam, enabling the device to read barcodes at different angles.
Side View
On both sides of the scanner, you’ll find a long, easy-to-reach scan button. The scan button enables users to trigger scan sessions.
Bottom View
The underside of the scanner features an OTG-compatible USB-type C port and two charging contact pins.
The USB-type C port acts as the data host for charging, connecting peripherals and synchronising data between devices. The contact pins are used to exchange data and charge the device when placed in a desktop cradle or charging station.
