EXID eSkan 2D barcode scanners

July 2018 Access Control & Identity Management

The latest-generation eSkan SADL (South African Driver’s Licence) 2D barcode scanner from EXID includes a touchscreen that enables users to manually enter details such as driver telephone numbers, destination numbers, kilometre readings, and OTP access codes. In addition, several new scripts have been added to allow for the entry of this information via the touchscreen. These scripts can be tailored to user requirements and increase ease of use for car dealerships and for asset tracking.

The new eSkan also incorporates the latest OEM barcode engine technology from Honeywell. Available with an LED-based aimer, the N6600 series integrates Adaptus 6.0 technology for unparalleled 1D and 2D scanning performance.

A proprietary wireless radio communications interface port has been added that allows the eSkan to seamlessly communicate with other peripherals such as boomgate controllers.

Near Field Communications (NFC) capabilities have been added to the device which allows the scanner to read international passports by extracting the information contained in the embedded smart chip found in these passports. In addition, the new eSkan can read all access control cards like ISO 14443 and Mifare supported protocols.
