PORTRAIT 2D BARCODE SCANNER, BLACK

The MicroTouch 2D-PMH-A1 is a black portrait 2D barcode scanner built around the Honeywell N4680 barcode engine. Its standard configuration is Presentation Mode, with support for USB HID Keyboard Mode, USB Serial Model, and HID POS Mode. The scanner combines 640×480 resolution, a 40° horizontal × 30° vertical viewing angle, LED illumination and aiming, and audio functionality in a housing measuring 79.6 x 56.6 x 35.4 mm.

Ideal Use Cases

This model is intended for compatible MicroTouch terminal installations requiring a portrait barcode scanner with a presentation-mode configuration. Listed compatibility includes the DT-156P-A1, DT-215P-B2, IC-156P-AA2, IC-156P-AW1-W10, IC-156P-AW2-W10, IC-156P-AW3-W10, IC-156P-AW4-W10, IC-215P-AA2, IC-215P-AW2-W10, and IC-215P-AW3-W10. Its supported terminal modes accommodate configurations that use keyboard-style USB input, USB serial operation, or HID POS communication. Confirm the exact terminal model and required terminal mode when planning an installation.

Why Choose This Model

The 2D-PMH-A1 provides a clearly defined combination of scanner engine, configuration, communication modes, and physical dimensions. The Honeywell N4680 is identified as the barcode engine, while Presentation Mode is supplied as the standard configuration. Its black housing matches the product’s specified finish, and the unit has a net weight of 0.049 kg and gross weight of 0.104 kg. These documented details make it possible to evaluate the scanner against terminal compatibility, available space, communication requirements, and installation conditions before ordering.

Installation and Integration

The compact housing measures 79.6 x 56.6 x 35.4 mm, providing exact dimensions for installation planning. Two screws are included with the scanner. Integration can be arranged around USB HID Keyboard Mode, USB Serial Model, or HID POS Mode, depending on the supported workflow of the connected terminal. The stated operating temperature is 30°C to 60°C, while the specified storage temperature is 40°C to 70°C. The humidity specification is 0% to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing, at 60°C. These environmental figures should be checked against the intended installation location alongside the listed MicroTouch terminal compatibility.

Performance Highlights

The scanner has a 640×480 resolution and a viewing angle of 40° horizontally by 30° vertically. Illumination and aiming are provided by a 3000K LED and a 630nm LED. Its stated ideal scan distance extends from 36 mm to 747 mm, although performance may be affected by barcode quality and environmental conditions. Listed 1D symbols include Codabar, Code 11, Code 128, Code 2 of 5, Code 39, Code 93 and 93i, EAN/JAN-13, EAN/JAN 8, IATA Code 2 of 5, Interleaved 2 of 5, Matrix 2 of 5, MSI, GS1 Databar, UPC-A, UPC E, UPC-A/EAN-13 with Extended Coupon Code, Coupon GS1 Code 32(PARAF), EAN-UCC Emulation, and GS1 Data Bar. Audio functionality is also specified.

What Makes It Different

The model’s specification connects a named Honeywell N4680 engine with Presentation Mode and three supported USB terminal modes. It also provides an explicit compatibility list rather than a general terminal reference. The combination of defined resolution, viewing angle, illumination and aiming wavelengths, scan-distance range, environmental limits, dimensions, and weight gives installers concrete information for evaluating fit. Its portrait format and black housing further identify the exact configuration represented by SKU 2D-PMH-A1.

Final Assessment

The MicroTouch 2D-PMH-A1 is a focused choice for compatible MicroTouch terminal installations requiring the specified portrait scanner configuration. Its Honeywell N4680 engine, 640×480 resolution, Presentation Mode setup, three supported terminal modes, and 36 mm to 747 mm ideal scan-distance range are the central selection points. Verify the terminal model, desired communication mode, installation dimensions, and stated environmental limits to determine whether it matches the intended setup.
