3310G

What type of device is this?

The Honeywell Vuquest 3310G is a compact area-imaging barcode scanner designed to capture 1D, PDF, 2D, postal, and OCR symbologies. It can be used as a handheld, wearable, presentation, or fixed-mount scanner.

Which barcode formats can it read?

It reads standard 1D, PDF, 2D, postal, and OCR symbologies. The exact decoding capabilities depend on the selected kit configuration and enabled features.

Can it scan barcodes displayed on electronic screens?

Yes. Its area-imaging technology is designed to read barcodes from reflective surfaces, including mobile phone displays and computer monitors, as well as conventionally printed labels.

Which host interfaces are supported?

Supported host interfaces include USB, RS-232, and keyboard wedge. Its multi-interface design provides flexibility when integrating the scanner with compatible point-of-sale, kiosk, and industrial systems.

What power supply does it require?

The scanner requires a 5 VDC input with a tolerance of ±0.25 V. Typical operating consumption is 2.3 W, or 450 mA at 5 V, while standby consumption is approximately 0.45 W, or 90 mA at 5 V.

What are its dimensions and weight?

The unit measures approximately 74 x 50 x 26 mm, equivalent to 2.9 x 1.9 x 1.0 inches, and weighs about 75 g or 2.7 oz. Its compact design suits installations where space is limited.

Is it suitable for fixed-mount applications?

Yes. The Vuquest 3310G supports universal mounting and presentation-mode scanning, making it suitable for kiosks, counters, access points, and light industrial equipment.

What environmental protection does it provide?

The enclosure is rated IP53, providing limited protection against dust ingress and water spray. The scanner is also designed to withstand multiple drops from a height of 1.5 m or 5 ft.

What operating temperatures can it handle?

It is specified for operation from 0°C to 40°C, or 32°F to 104°F. Its storage temperature range is -20°C to 70°C, or -4°F to 158°F, with 5% to 95% non-condensing relative humidity.

How well does it handle moving barcodes?

At its focal point, the scanner has a motion tolerance greater than 270 cm per second, or 106 inches per second. Actual performance can vary with barcode quality, movement direction, distance, and ambient conditions.

What is the scanner's typical reading distance?

Reading distance varies by barcode type and density. Typical ranges include 26 to 330 mm for a 10 mil Code 39 barcode and 39 to 435 mm for a 13 mil UPC-A barcode.

Can it read small, high-density barcodes?

Yes. Typical resolution reaches 5 mil, or 0.125 mm, for 1D Code 39 and 6.7 mil, or approximately 0.170 mm, for Data Matrix. Results depend on print contrast, barcode condition, and the surrounding environment.

What field of view does it provide?

The scanner uses an 838 x 640-pixel area image sensor with a horizontal scan angle of 42.4 degrees and a vertical scan angle of 33 degrees. Its specified focal point is 127 mm, or 5 inches.

What type of connector is used?

The device uses a 15-position D-sub connector. The correct compatible cable and interface arrangement should be confirmed before replacing an existing scanner.

Where is this scanner commonly used?

Typical applications include retail counters, kiosks, check-in stations, document processing, light industrial workstations, and equipment that needs compact fixed-position barcode capture.
