Handheld USB wand scanner
The UNITECH MS100-NUCB00-SG is a corded pen-style barcode scanner designed for low-volume data entry. It connects via USB and draws power directly from the host, requiring no external supply or driver installation. The lightweight ABS housing survives repeated 1.5-metre drops onto concrete, making it suitable for daily use in libraries, small retailers, or government offices.
Suited for single-barcode capture on paper
This wand excels when operators must select one code from a dense sheet without accidentally scanning neighbours, and it reads extra-wide linear symbols that fixed-width imagers cannot capture. It does not suit high-throughput conveyor lines, hands-free presentation scanning, or any workflow requiring 2D symbologies such as QR codes or Data Matrix.
5-mil resolution decides suitability
The scanner resolves bars as narrow as 0.127 mm (5 mils) and operates at a 1 mm depth of field, so the tip must stay in near-contact with the label. If your barcodes are printed finer than this limit, or if operators need stand-off distance, a different scan engine is required.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the MS100 wand scanner is reading correctly after plugging it in?
Open a text editor and sweep the tip across a printed UPC-A or Code 39 barcode; the decoded digits should appear instantly at the cursor position.
What cables or accessories come with the MS100-NUCB00-SG and what must I source separately?
The package includes the wand scanner with an attached USB cable; no separate cable or power adapter is required because the unit draws 5 V DC from the host port.
Which version of the MS100 should I choose if I only need to read standard 1D retail barcodes?
The MS100-NUCB00-SG model listed here reads all common linear symbologies such as EAN-13, UPC-A, Code 39 and Code 128, so this single version covers standard retail scanning needs.
