1000A - Up to 200 Scans per Second

The CipherLab 1000A provides scanning speeds up to:

200 scans per second

This makes it suitable for everyday business applications where operators repeatedly scan standard 1D barcodes.

1000A - 3 Mil Resolution

The 1000A supports barcode resolution down to approximately:

3 mil

This can be useful for reading relatively dense 1D barcodes where the barcode quality and symbology are within the scanner's supported range.

1000A - Up to 150 mm Wide Barcodes

CipherLab specifies the 1000A for reading barcodes up to approximately:

150 mm wide

This makes it relevant for applications involving wider linear barcodes, including applicable barcodes found on:

Documents
Bills
Identification cards
Driving licences
Business forms
Product packaging

The scanner reads the barcode data itself; it does not read general document text or perform OCR.

1000A - Up to 12 cm Depth of Field

For an applicable 13 mil barcode, CipherLab specifies a depth of field from contact to approximately:

12 cm / 4.72 inches

This gives the 1000A greater scanning flexibility than a contact-only scanner.

Actual reading distance varies according to barcode density, size, quality and printing conditions.

CipherLab 1090+

The CipherLab 1090+ is the contact CCD scanning model within the current 1000 Series.

It is designed for close-range barcode capture and can be useful where accurate reading of clustered or lower-quality printed 1D barcodes is important.

1090+ Key Specifications

Scanner Type: CCD Contact Scanner
Optical Sensor: 2048 pixels
Light Source: Red LED, approximately 650 nm
Optical Resolution: 4 mil
Scan Rate: Up to 100 scans/second

Drop Resistance: 1.0 m
Colour: Ivory
Dimensions: Approximately 182 × 104 × 64 mm
Weight: Approximately 148 g

1090+ Contact Scanning

The 1090+ uses contact-oriented CCD scanning.

CipherLab positions this design for accurate reading where barcodes may be:

Closely grouped
Lower quality
Densely positioned
Printed on documents
Presented at a checkout or workstation

Its wide scanner head supports barcodes up to approximately 90 mm wide in contact mode.

1090+ - Up to 100 Scans per Second

The 1090+ provides:

Up to 100 scans per second

for compatible 1D barcode capture.

The 1000A is the faster model within this family where scanning speed is an important selection criterion.

30% Print Contrast Signal

Both current 1000 Series models are specified for a minimum:

30% PCS

Print Contrast Signal indicates the contrast between the bars and background of a barcode.

This capability can help with less-than-ideal printed barcodes, although no scanner can guarantee successful reading of every damaged, distorted or poorly produced barcode.

Supported 1D Barcodes

The CipherLab 1000 Series supports major 1D symbologies including applicable:

Codabar
Code 39
Code 93
Code 128
GS1 DataBar
Industrial 2 of 5
Interleaved 2 of 5
Matrix 2 of 5
MSI
Italian Pharmacode
French Pharmacode
Plessey
Telepen
UPC
EAN
GS1-128

The required symbology should be confirmed where the business uses a specialized or less-common barcode format.

1D Scanner - Not a 2D Imager

The CipherLab 1000 Series should be selected primarily for 1D linear barcode scanning.

Do not assume support for modern 2D symbols such as:

QR Code
Data Matrix
PDF417
Aztec Code

If 2D barcode scanning is required, a suitable CipherLab 2D scanner should be selected instead.

This distinction is particularly important for businesses planning future QR Code or mobile-screen scanning workflows.

USB Connectivity

USB is available within the 1000 Series.

The exact USB operating mode depends on the selected model and interface configuration.

The 1090+ supports applicable:

USB HID
USB Virtual COM

The required cable/interface should be confirmed before ordering.

RS-232 Connectivity

RS-232 is supported within the 1000 Series.

This can be useful for:

Existing POS systems
Industrial computers
Legacy applications
Specialized business equipment
Systems designed around serial barcode input

Correct serial parameters must be configured between the scanner and host.

Keyboard Wedge

Keyboard-wedge connectivity is also supported.

This allows compatible scanned barcode data to be passed to the host in a keyboard-style input workflow.

Application behaviour still depends on the software field and scanner configuration.

IBM 4683 / 4694

The 1090+ additionally supports applicable:

IBM 4683 / 4694

interface environments.

This feature should not automatically be attributed to every 1000 Series model.

Programmable Configuration

CipherLab provides configuration tools for its scanner products, allowing applicable settings such as:

Symbology configuration
Data formatting
Interface settings
Scanner behaviour

to be adjusted according to the application.

Configuration capability does not replace software integration where the business application requires a specific data structure or workflow.

OPOS Support

CipherLab documents OPOS support for the 1000 Series, with the 1000A specifically positioned for straightforward integration with compatible POS environments.

Actual POS compatibility depends on:

Scanner model
Interface
Driver
OPOS configuration
Operating system
POS software

The complete environment should be verified before larger deployment.

1.0 m Drop Resistance

CipherLab specifies:

1.0 m / 3.3 ft drop resistance

for the 1000 Series models.

This provides practical durability for ordinary business environments.

Drop testing is a manufacturer test specification and should not be interpreted as protection against every accidental impact or physical-damage scenario.

Solid-State Scanning

The 1000 Series uses imaging technology without the moving scan mechanism associated with traditional mechanical laser designs.

This supports:

Low power consumption
Simple construction
Reliable everyday barcode capture

Retail Applications

Potential retail applications include:

POS checkout
Product barcode scanning
Price lookup
Inventory checking
Stock identification
Goods receiving
Document processing

Healthcare Applications

Potential healthcare applications include appropriate:

Scanner capability alone does not establish clinical or regulatory suitability. The barcode standard, software and organizational workflow must be separately verified.

Government & Document Applications

The 1000 Series can be considered for compatible:

Document barcodes
Identification workflows
Form processing
Administrative data capture
Record tracking

The scanner reads supported barcode symbols. It is not a document scanner, OCR reader, passport reader or smart-card reader.

Manufacturing Applications

Potential manufacturing uses include:

Component barcode scanning
Work-in-progress tracking
Inventory control
Product identification
Production data capture
Document barcode processing

For demanding industrial environments requiring higher drop protection or ingress protection, a more rugged scanner may be preferable.
