Microscan Systems announces the MS-Connect 210, a streamlined connectivity solution for use with any Microscan bar code reader. Replacing the MS-Connect 200 model, the MS-Connect 210 factory floor ready wiring box includes a user-friendly design, vivid display and multipleconnectivity options such as Ethernet protocols. Manufacturers can now significantly expedite bar code reader installation in an industrial environment with the MS-Connect 210 as a single point of connectivity for inputs,outputs and power.

Since every application has unique reader connectivity requirements, electricians and equipment installers prefer wiring to terminal blocks instead of creating custom cables. Microscan provides an efficient solution,complete with Ethernet TCP/IP and EtherNet/IP protocols, in the MS-Connect 210. “We realize that customers using our readers need a simple and cost-effective way to integrate them into their applications,” commented Matt Van Bogart, Microscan Product Manager. “The MS-Connect 210 offers efficient connectivity and eliminates the need for custom-made cables.”

The IP65-rated MS-Connect 210 is built to withstand harsh factory environments. Featuring an ultra-bright display, four access holes and wide terminal strips, the MS-Connect 210 allows easy access to Microscan reader functions. It also allows users to trigger a read cycle, set a new master symbol, and monitor the activity of outputs from the front panel. An internal default switch and connections for a backup reader are included.
