LI4278

THE NEXT GENERATION IN 1D SCANNING
Built for all day and everyday use, the LI4278 offers cordless freedom with Bluetooth compatibility. It also offers better encryption for improved security and better overall wireless performance.

The LI4278 is backward compatible with its key accessory — the cradle — which works with its cousins, the LS4278 and DS6878. Superior battery power management delivers the largest number of scans per battery charge to support scan intensive applications. You can use it in dusty and wet environments and it can survive a 6 foot/1.8 m drop.

Features

Excellent 1-D scanning performance
Delivers superior scanning speed and a wide data capture range

 

Captures virtually all 1-D barcodes on any surface — including mobile phone displays
Capture labels printed on traditional paper labels or displayed on the screen of a mobile phone, label or computer

 

Wide working range
Reads UPC barcodes from 1 in./2.54 cm to over 30 in./76.2 cm as well as high density codes and extended ranges for greater application flexibility

 

Superior motion and angular tolerance
Barcodes can be captured faster, and there is no need to pause between scans

 

Patent pending single circuit board construction
Maximize durability and reduces downtime

 

Bright crisp aiming line
Easier to aim in bright or dim lighting environments

 

Built-in rechargeable battery
Provides largest number of scans per charge – well beyond a single shift in the hightest usage profiles; replaceable battery ensures long lifecycle


Long life industrial charging contacts

Reliable performance, rated to 250,000+insertions

 

Compatible with 123Scan2 and Remote Scanner Management (RSM)
Dramatically reduces management time and cost, from initial configuration to day-to-day management; SDK available for custom development

 

Withstands 100+ consecutive drops to concrete
Protects against downtime from breakage due to everyday drops

 

Multi point-to-point
Use up to three scanners with a single desktop cradle and seven scanners with a presentation cradle, reducing capital expenditures and maintenance costs

 

Batch mode operation
Allows user to continue scanning outside communication range; can scan over 500 UPC bar codes into memory and upload automatically when in communication range

Flexible mounting — vertical or horizontal
Desktop cradle provides versatility to accommodate your unique environment

Bluetooth 2.1
Provides better security, better performance, better energy management and much easier pairing over the Bluetooth wireless connection

Backward compatible
Works with LS4278 cradles, providing a very cost-effective upgrade path
