HW-3966B Handheld Barcode Scanner with Display Screen & Charging Cradle
The HW-3966B is a next-generation handheld barcode scanner featuring a built-in 2-inch display and dedicated charging cradle. Unlike conventional scanners that rely solely on configuration barcodes, this model allows users to adjust settings directly through an intuitive on-screen menu using physical buttons. The screen displays critical information including Bluetooth name, unique scanner ID, date, time, operating mode, scan count, and captured data—dramatically improving operational efficiency.
Connectivity & Flexibility
This scanner supports Bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless, USB, and RS232 connectivity, enabling seamless integration across diverse environments. It offers two operation modes: real-time upload mode and storage mode, allowing users to store scanned data locally and upload it when convenient.
