Metrologic's Orbit is an aggressive, omnidirectional presentation laser bar code scanner. Designed for applications where counter space is at a premium, Orbit is the ideal presentation scanner for retail, convenience, liquor and specialty stores. In addition, Orbit's unique, contoured shape allows it to be picked up and used as a hand-held when scanning large or bulky items. Lightweight and rugged, Orbit is small in size but big in performance. Engineered with a large, easy-to-find sweet spot, Orbit increases first pass read rate for maximum productivity. The scanning head can be tilted vertically a full 30 degree for added flexibility when scanning various sized objects. Orbit has a patented 20-line omnidirectional scan pattern that produces 1, 200 scan lines per second. These features increase the scanning throughput, without increasing Orbit's size. Orbit is engineered for easy configuration and utilizes user-replaceable cables, in order to meet the multiple application needs across the many markets it serves. Data editing or "parsing" is also a standard feature. Parsing enables the encoded information to be manipulated to meet the host system's requirements
