The Symbol M2000 scanner provides direct connections to IBM, USB,
RS-232 and Symbol's Synapse "smart" cabling which connect to
all popular host terminals and eliminate the need for
separate scanner-to-host controllers. To ensure an
up-to-date system, the Symbol M2000 barcode scanner was designed to handle
new and emerging UCC/EAN-driven symbologies, including
UCC/EAN Reduced Space Symbology (RSS), UCC/EAN Composite
Symbology (CS), and Portable Data File (PDF). An integrated
feature, Advanced Data Formatting, enhances M2000 data
capture productivity by translating a barcode string and
stamping the bar code prefix with time, date and the number
of the employee who scanned the data. Electronic Article
Surveillance deactivation is also an option.
The Symbol M2000 Cyclone scanner has bright LEDs, which indicate
which scan pattern is working. These LEDs emit highly
visible laser beams which are able to be seen in even the
brightest lighting conditions, and they assist in intuitive
aiming accuracy. The Symbol M2000's single scan line appears
as a "mini" raster and scans multiple 1-D, 2-D, and
Composite UCC/EAN and RSS codes to swiftly and accurately
capture data on poorly printed and damaged bar coded menus
and pick lists. For more convenience, the Symbol M2000
scanner automatically switches from hands-free to hand-held
mode, and immediately adjusts the scan pattern for optimum
hand-held data capture. The scanner is also able to be
placed in the optional wall-mount stand.
The Symbol Cyclone M2000 scanner has many features that add to its
ergonomic style. They include a built-in adjustable stand,
secure hand-grip, and contoured two-finger scan trigger. To
ensure a rugged exterior, the Symbol M2000 has a large,
scratch-resistant and recessed scan window and non-slip
rubber feet. For those employees working in noisy
environments, twin beepers tested to be heard in these noisy
environments have been built into the sides of the scanner
handle.

Reads Current and New UCC/EAN Symbologies with Ease
New ways of doing business require new types of bar codes to
keep products flowing smoothly from producer to user. The
M2000 scanner was designed to handle new and emerging
UCC/EAN-driven symbologies:
The UCC/EAN Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) is a "stacked"
linear bar code for items previously too small to be marked.
Track previously untrackable data on products so that lot
numbers, expiration dates, weights, prices and currency
information are included in the bar code.
-
 Retail General Merchandise: Label items with complete
product identification for better management of inventory and profitability.
- Convenience Stores and Food Stores: Encode random quantity
and weight products, such as meat, produce and cheeses with
product identification information for better inventory
management and to simplify the order and fulfillment
process.
The UCC/EAN Composite Symbology (CS) combines the standard
linear UPC/EAN/JAN code, a proven tool for POS checkout,
receiving and inventory tracking, with a two-dimensional
PDF417 portable data file that incorporates extended product
information.
-
 Healthcare: Hospitals, drug stores and pharmacies can trace
manufacturing lot numbers on pharmaceuticals and other
controlled substances. Caregivers can streamline
prescription processing and verify patient ID by scanning
patient identification cards.
- Logistics: Gain access to shipping as well
as content
information at any point in the supply chain.
- Retail Food: Shopkeepers can record purchase data and
identification cards with a single scan of the composite
code. The identification and shipping data is securely
attached to the product – stored on a bar code no bigger
than a postage stamp.
Portable Data File (PDF) is a two-dimensional (2-D) data
file that holds up to 1,000 bytes of data (1 kilobyte).
-
 Age Verification: Many authorities now encode the date of
birth in the PDF symbol on a driver's license, preventing
the sale of alcohol or tobacco products to underage
customers.
- National Identification Cards: Many countries use national
ID cards to open credit and telephone accounts and for
identification at border crossings.
- Customer Loyalty Cards:
Track customers' shopping habits.
Choose the Best Scan Pattern for Your Application
A brilliant performer at the point of sale, the Symbol M2000
scanner captures bar code data instantly, making short work
of long checkout lines. Provides true "point-and-scan"
scanning performance on 1-D, 2-D, RSS and CS symbologies.
Cyclone Omni-Directional Scan Pattern: A rotating omni-directional
scan pattern provides the highest possible throughput by
eliminating scan pattern "holes." In Cyclone mode, the
scanner efficiently reads even truncated bar codes. Smart
Raster Scan Pattern: The Symbol M2000's scan pattern
automatically opens up and covers 2-D and CS symbols for
extremely efficient data capture. Provides the best scanning
performance on damaged and poorly printed bar codes, while
eliminating the need for operator training.
High Density Single Line Scan Pattern: The Symbol M2000's
single scan line appears as a "mini" raster and scans
multiple areas of 1-D codes to swiftly and accurately
capture data on poorly printed and damaged bar coded menus
and pick lists.
Bright LEDs indicate which scan pattern is working. For
intuitive aiming accuracy, even in the brightest lighting
conditions and for can't miss, single-pass scanning, the 635
– 650-nm laser diode emits a highly visible beam for
easy-to-see scan patterns. When you lift the scanner off the
counter, it automatically switches from hands-free to
hand-held mode. The Symbol M2000 immediately adjusts the
scan pattern for optimum hand-held data capture. Put the
scanner back on the counter and it automatically returns to
hands-free mode. If countertop space is at a premium, just
place the Symbol M2000 in the optional wall-mount stand.
Premium Features and Unique Ergonomics Adapt to Many Uses
The Symbol M2000's adjustable, built-in stand accommodates
scanning a wide range of item sizes for efficient
throughput. The ergonomically shaped handle fits snugly in
the hand to ensure a secure grip. The large, contoured scan
trigger is handle -mounted for easy point-and-shoot
operation. The patented two-finger trigger operates with
minimum effort and delivers superior sensory feedback.
There's no need to change the scanner's orientation when
changing the scan pattern. All of the scan patterns exit the
Symbol M2000 from the large, scratch-resistant and deeply
recessed window at the front of the scanner. The broad,
rounded stand supplies rock-solid support for checkstand or
countertop use. For maximum non-slip security, rubber feet
cushion the bottom of the scanner.
Ingenious Design Provides Superior Throughput
Symbol's attention to detail comes through in design
elements such as the twin beepers built into the sides of
the Symbol M2000 scanner handle. The scanner beeper is loud
enough to be heard by operators working in noisy
environments.
Symbol M2000 scanners offer a host of high-performance
features for unmatched adaptability at the point of sale.
The Symbol M2000 provides direct connections to IBM, USB,
RS-232 and Symbol's Synapse "smart" cabling that provides
connectivity to all popular host terminals. Synapse Smart
Cables eliminate the need for separate scanner-to-host
controllers. Electronic Article Surveillance deactivation is
also an option; locating the deactivation antenna within the
scanner saves precious space at the point of sale, and
eliminates secondary operations.
Advanced Data Formatting, another Symbol breakthrough,
enhances M2000 data capture productivity. No need to modify
host-system software to match data input formats. Instead,
simply program the Symbol M2000. The scanner translates the
bar code string and, for later tracking, stamps the bar code
prefix with time, date and the number of the employee who
scanned the data.
Like every scanner from Symbol, the M2000 is an unbeatable
value because it is backed by Symbol's global network of
service and support from the world leader in bar code-driven
data management systems, with millions of scanners and
terminals installed.
