FM32 Series Fixed-Mount Barcode Scanner

The Newland FM32 series has an IP67-rated seal that renders it impervious to dust, water, and other contaminants. The high sealing prevents condensation that obscures the barcodes when transitioning from cold to hot temperatures. With minimized glare and reflection, the FM32 series is a good choice for reading codes even in the brightest sunlight, making it an efficient fixed-mount reader for outdoor applications.

The FM32 can provide ongoing status updates to the host, ensuring solution providers with remote applications can guarantee the operational status of the scanner and receive timely alerts regarding any potential issues before customers attempt to use it.

Armed with the sixth-generation technology from Newland, the FM32 excels at reading on­screen barcodes containing large amounts of data. With its megapixel technology, this fixed-mount scanner is also perfect for OCR reading applications like ID cards. 

By combining IR and light sensors, the FM32 achieves higher sensitivity to activate the scanner to capture barcodes as they are presented. This leads to higher throughput and productivity. The infrared sensor is particularly useful for remote applications with low ambient light conditions, enabling the scanner to read the code even if there are no discernible changes in light.

The FM32 combines excellent barcode and OCR scanning capabilities with full NFC functionality. This versatile scanner supports both contactless RFID cards and barcodes and, when authorized, can potentially be used in payment solutions.

The FM32 offers additional communication protocols, including Wiegand and RS485. Wiegand is most suitable for secure access control solutions, while RS485 is an ideal choice for longer cabling or when multiple devices run in parallel over a wider area, as is often the case in industrial settings.
