Features

  • 1D and 2D scanning: a CMOS sensor reads classic 1D barcodes as well as QR Code, DataMatrix, PDF417 and other 2D codes — from paper labels and from LCD, LED and OLED screens, including phone displays
  • Dual wireless: a bundled 2.4 GHz USB receiver (up to 100 m) plus built-in Bluetooth 5.0 (up to 15 m, HID / SPP / BLE profiles) for direct pairing with phones, tablets and laptops
  • Onboard memory (storage mode): store thousands of codes while out of range and upload them later in one batch
  • Automatic scanning: combined with the included stand, the proximity-triggered automatic mode makes the scanner almost hands-free
  • Virtual COM port: output over a 2.4 GHz wireless COM port for software that expects a serial device
  • Highly configurable: keyboard layout in 22 languages, iOS keyboard, end mark, transmission speed and delay, hide characters, prefix/suffix and an ASCII character table
  • Power management: standby timer and optional vibration feedback

Configuration codes

To change scanner settings, scan the barcode below directly with the HD2600A.

💡 Tip: print this page ("Download this page as PDF" button above) to keep the codes at hand during configuration.

Restore factory defaults

If the scanner does not behave as expected, scan the code below to restore all settings to their default values:

Scanning mode

Automatic mode (the scanner reads codes on proximity, without pressing the button — ideal together with the stand). To return to manual mode, press the scan button; automatic mode is also restored after the scanner sleeps and wakes up:

Code: Automatic mode

Connection and pairing

The HD2600A connects to the host in several ways. By default the bundled 2.4 GHz USB receiver works as a keyboard (HID) — just plug it in.

2.4 GHz

2.4 GHz mode (pair with the USB receiver):

Code: 2.4 GHz mode

Enter pairing mode:

Code: Enter pairing mode

2.4 GHz Virtual COM port

Use this when your software expects a serial (COM) device: scan COM port mode, then Enter pairing mode, plug in the receiver — a COM port is created on the host.

Frequently asked questions

What types of codes can the HD2600A scan?
The scanner supports 1D codes such as EAN, Code 128, Code 39 and UPC, and 2D codes including QR, DataMatrix, PDF417 and Micro QR. It can read from both printed labels and digital displays.
Can I use the HD2600A without a constant connection to a computer?
Yes. The device has built-in memory that stores thousands of scanned codes in storage mode, which can be transferred later to your computer.
What wireless technologies does the scanner use?
The HD2600A connects via Bluetooth 5.0 and 2.4G RF using the included USB receiver, giving flexibility and freedom of movement during scanning.
Can the scanner read codes from phone screens?
Yes. The HD2600A has an advanced optical system that reads codes directly from smartphone screens, LCD monitors and LED/OLED displays.
Does the scanner support automatic scanning mode?
Yes. When placed on the included stand, the scanner works in automatic mode — it detects a code brought close to the scanning window and reads it without pressing any button.
