The XT8601B is designed to read barcodes on production lines and output the decoded data to the customer’s system.

USB requires the scanner to connect directly to a nearby computer. When the scanning position is far from the industrial PC, USB cabling becomes inconvenient.

TCP/IP allows the XT8601B to connect to the factory network through an Ethernet cable. After reading a barcode, the scanner sends the decoded data to the industrial computer over the network.

Fixed IP for Multiple Scanning Stations

Each XT8601B can use a fixed IP address. The customer’s software uses this address to identify the scanner at a specific workstation.

This is useful when several barcode readers are installed on the same production line.

XT8601B Barcode Reading

The XT8601B reads 1D and 2D barcodes from products, parts or production labels. It supports TCP/IP and RS232 data output.

XTIOT supplies the barcode-reading hardware. The customer develops the software used to receive and process the decoded data.
