HotShot's scanning, host connectivity, and software feature set are ideal for a wide range of specialty hand-held laser scanning applications, such as video rental establishments, music/CD stores, sporting goods, office automation functions, or as an attachment to a portable terminal  for inventory and/or mobile applications.

Continuing the Symbol tradition of award-winning design, the HotShot scanner is comfortable and easy to use, even for extended time periods. Weighing less than 6 oz./168 gm, the HotShot's optimal handle size and soft-touch trigger minimize operator fatigue and boost productivity.

Best-of-Class  Performance

Available in decoded and undecoded versions, HotShot offers impressive features to meet the requirements of specialty hand-held scanning applications. Detailed attention to the ergonomic "aim-and-shoot" design means it is intuitive to use and minimizes operator training.

Its excellent scanning range and large "sweet spot" reads UPC/EAN bar codes  from contact to 11 in./ 27.8 cm and 5 mil high-density bar codes from 0.5  in./1.3 cm to 2.5 in./6.4 cm. At the heart of the HotShot Scanner is Symbol's acclaimed SE 1200 Series Scan Engine. Advanced bar code reading capability includes a variety of bar code sizes, even poorly printed and low-contrast symbols.

Symbol's patented Mylar^® scan element eliminates wear providing  years of dependable performance, and uses less power, extending battery life in portable applications. In addition to the onboard RS-232 or Keyboard Wedge  interfaces, Symbol's exclusive Synapse "Smart Cable" offers connectivity to virtually any host type by a simple cable change. HotShot's gold-coated optics  increase first-pass read rates in a variety of lighting conditions. Protective elastometric rubber overmolds absorb impact, provide easy pickup and prevent the HotShot from sliding off the counter, allowing for years of durable and reliable scanning service. An optional hands-free stand is available for fixed-mount  scanning of smaller items, especially useful at the point-of-sale.
