Microscan IB-140

Allen-Bradley Replacement
Scan Head Module
Good news for bar code
systems that rely on the Allen-Bradley DS or DD series decoders and LD
or L series scan heads: Microscan's new IB-140 allows a Microscan
scanner to function as a drop-in replacement for Allen-Bradley’s
discontinued LD and L series scan heads.
This drop-in solution benefits current Allen-Bradley customer
facilities.
Extends working life of AB decoders
Easy install, drop-in replacement
Decoder stays integrated
Fully warranted scanner
Future needs can be met by integrated scanner/decoder readily
available
"The goal is to provide Allen-Bradley DS or DD series customers with
a cost effective and reliable scanning source," comments Microscan
product manager Matt Allen.

Rockwell Automation (Allen-Bradley) adds, "This is a good example of
Rockwell Automation’s Encompass Program providing solutions to
complement Rockwell Automation product offerings."
Accomplished by use of a Microscan communications device, decoded data
received is received from the scanner and converted back into a bar code
signal which can be read and displayed by an Allen-Bradley DD or DS
decoder.
"Every facility using Allen-Bradley’s DS and DD series decoders needs to
know about this," notes Allen. "Microscan’s drop-in replacement can
extend the life of their current bar code system, saving time and
money."
Customers have the choice of three different Microscan scanners to pair
with an Allen-Bradley decoder.
