After more than ten years of success as the first hand-held omnidirectional scanner, Metrologic has discontinued the MS6720 as of December 31, 2006. The direct replacement is Metrologic’s Fusion™, a similar scanner with improved ergonomics and an expanded feature set.

Metrologic (now Honeywell) will continue to offer service and support for customers with installed MS6720 scanners through December 31, 2011, five years after the discontinuation date.

See the MS3870 Fusion for the replacement of the MS6720 unit.

Metrologic’s MS6720 is the first laser bar code scanner to have bridged the gap between omnidirectional fixed projection and hand-held scanners. It incorporates fixed projection performance and a patented 20-line scan pattern into the comfortable, ergonomic styling of a hand-held. With this design, Metrologic has engineered a scanner that transcends any other on the market today.

The MS6720 utilizes a unique, patented infrared sensor and control scheme for hands-free projection scanning and fatigue reduced hand-held operation. Whether operators choose to present small items to the scanner or transport the lightweight scanner to bulkier items, the MS6720 is the perfect choice for a large variety applications.

The MS6720 scanner is available with either a stationary or adjustable stand. The stationary stand is ideal for applications where the MS6720 is being used mostly as a hand-held scanner. This stand was designed for ease of use while still providing sufficient room for fixed presentation. The adjustable stand provides 7 rotational and 9 tilting positions as well as a removable wall mount cup.

The MS6720 features both short-range and longrange activation, user-friendly programming, reliability and versatility. Operators are sure to appreciate the convenience and flexibility of the MS6720.
