4 Product description
The BCS 3608ex-NI and BCS 3608ex-IS series consists of wired hand-held scanners for capturing 1D/2D barcodes
and for OCR text recognition. The BCS 3678ex-NI and BCS 3678ex-IS hand-held scanners with Bluetooth
supplement the series with wireless data capture. The hand-held scanners in the BCS 3608ex-NI- and BCS 3608ex-
IS series have been modified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres (see Chapter 2.1, P. 6).
The barcodes are captured by a 1D/2D scan engine. The ergonomic design permits 1-handed operation.
