• Programmable two-step sleep mode and instant wake up; prolongs scanner life

A winning combination for any business. Maximum performance in minimal space. The VS800 compact scanner was designed specifically for point-of-sale applications, where space is always at a premium and where scanner performance is a critical component of efficiency and success.

The VS800 is the scanner to choose when you need reliable, full-functioned barcode scanning without sacrificing counter space. With optional mounts, operators can position the scanner at various angles to create a work environment that is highly convenient, comfortable, and productive.

A Lot Of Technology In Very Little Space Using an advanced visible laser diode scanning system, the VS800 offers a large 8" / 20 cm depth-of-field and wide scan area for high-performance, hands-free scanning. With PSC's patented Edge™ software and enhanced decoding capabilities, the VS800 is fast and delivers very high first pass read rates on a variety of barcodes including labels that are long, truncated, partially obscured, or otherwise difficult to read. And it reads codes as small as 5 mils. All this means faster checkout for retail customers.

This versatile scanner autodiscriminates UPC or EAN plus 5 industrial symbologies. And the single, dual, or triple interfaces and extensive programming options deliver the flexibility needed to quickly and easily integrate the VS800 into your POS system.

Advanced Design. Simple Operation. Built For Long Life and Fast ROI. Items are simply presented or swept by the VS800 . The aggressive, omni-directional scan pattern virtually eliminates the need for operator training and minimizes the need to adjust or orient individual items.

The specially designed case of the VS800 is built to survive drops from a counter top and keep right on scanning. And it resists chipping, stains, and fading on its surface as well. With the VS800 , maintenance is virtually nonexistent. Simply clean the scanner and window periodically and enjoy its productivity year after year.

There's no need to make compromises between quality and affordability. The VS800 delivers it all, high-end performance, compact design, and enhanced reliability at a price you can afford.
