Applications for the Datalogic CODiScan
A wearable scanner like the CODiScan is able to boost productivity in any high-speed picking environment. Seconds saved in each scan (versus repeatedly picking up and putting down a handheld scanner) add up to massive worker output gains over the course of a day. Common applications are in warehouse management (picking, packing, shipping, receiving), retail (order fulfillment, receiving), and manufacturing (inventory management, verification of finished goods).

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions About the Datalogic CODiScan Wearable Scanner
Q: What is the Datalogic CODiScan, and where does it fit in my operation?
A. The CODiScan is a lightweight Bluetooth wearable barcode scanner built for hands-free scanning. It’s designed for warehouses, distribution centers, e-commerce fulfillment, and intralogistics. It also suits retail inventory and shelf replenishment, and manufacturing tasks such as work-in-process (WIP) tracking, traceability, and quality control. If your associates scan all day while picking, packing, or handling material, the CODiScan lets them keep both hands on the job.
Q: How does a wearable scanner improve my team’s productivity?
A. The CODiScan weighs only 44 g (1.5 oz), so workers can wear it on the hand, around the neck, on a belt, or in a pocket. Workers don’t have to pick up and set down a handheld device for every scan. Keeping both hands free speeds up picking, packing, and put-away and reduces wasted motion across a shift. The fully adjustable hand trigger makes scanning feel natural, and because the trigger is separate from the scanner, the glove can be washed easily.
Q: Will the battery last through my shifts?
A. Yes. The CODiScan is rated for two full shifts on one charge, or up to 12,000 scans. A full charge takes about two hours, and you can add more charging options as your fleet grows. That makes it practical for multi-shift operations without keeping spare devices on hand.
Q: How do workers know a scan was successful in a busy, noisy warehouse?
A. The CODiScan gives immediate good-read feedback in several ways. Three high-visibility LED blades show status across up to 180 degrees, so the worker can see it without turning the wrist. It also uses audible signals and Datalogic’s Green Spot technology, which projects a green dot onto the barcode to confirm a good read. The Smart Scanning System includes an aimer that reaches up to 1.5 m (4.9 ft) for accurate targeting.
Q: How does the CODiScan connect to our existing devices and systems, and which model should we choose?
A. The CODiScan connects over Bluetooth. The included Aladdin app handles pairing and configuration with Android mobile computers. For fixed workstations, Gateway Connect can pair up to seven CODiScan units with a fixed computer. There are three models to match your barcodes and scanning distances:
HS7600SR (Standard Range): for general-purpose scanning
HS7600MR (Mid-Range): for longer reach
HS7600RT (Short Range High Density): for small, dense codes common in manufacturing and electronics
