Set contents

  • Wired HD-SL36A multi-dimensional barcode scanner
  • Built-in USB cable
  • Scanner stand
  • User manual

Features

  • QR and Aztec codes, also from screens: the CMOS sensor reads 1D and 2D codes from paper labels and LCD/LED/OLED screens — including Aztec codes in vehicle registration documents
  • DataMatrix GS1 (UDI): after activation with the code on this page, the scanner reads UDI codes used on medical devices
  • Automatic mode with the stand: codes are read the moment they appear, without pressing the button
  • IP54 housing: resistant to dust and splashes
  • USB + virtual COM: works with software that expects a serial port
  • Fully configurable: prefixes/suffixes, beeper, keyboard layouts, per-symbology switches — codes from both manuals (HDWR and the complete producer manual) below

Frequently asked questions

Is it possible to turn off the scanning sound on the HD-SL36A?
Yes. Scan the sound-off code from the beeper settings section on this page.
What to do when the HD-SL36A scanner does not work properly after a Windows 10 update?
Open Device Manager, connect the scanner via USB and look for a libusb entry with a black cable icon. Right-click it: Update driver, Browse my computer, Let me choose from a list, then select HID-compatible device or USB device. The scanner will start working as a keyboard.
Does the HD-SL36A read UDI (DataMatrix GS1) codes on medical devices?
Yes. Scan the activation code from the DataMatrix GS1 (UDI) reading section at the top of this page — from then on the scanner decodes DataMatrix GS1 codes.
Can the HD-SL36A read the Aztec code from a vehicle registration document?
Yes, that is one of this model's main functions. It reads Aztec codes both from the paper document and from a phone screen.
How do I configure the HD-SL36A?
All settings are changed by scanning the configuration codes on this page. If anything goes wrong, scan the Factory default code.
