Why the Xenon Ultra 1962

The Ultra 1960's optics, without the cable

The Xenon Ultra 1962 is the cordless version of Honeywell's corded Xenon Ultra 1960, with the same 1280 × 1080 sensor and green-dot aimer, and it is the model Honeywell names to replace the Xenon 1902g. It links to its charge and communication base over Bluetooth 4.2, and you choose its power source: a lithium-ion battery for long shifts or a battery-free supercapacitor that recharges in under a minute.

Free the counter of cables

Bluetooth 4.2 Class 1 reaches up to 100 m line of sight from the base by default, and can be set to Class 2 (10 m) if you want scanners to stay close. Cashiers can scan a rice bag in the trolley or a carton on the floor without dragging a cord across the till.

Battery or battery-free: your choice

The 3,300 mAh lithium-ion version gives up to 80,000 scans per charge at one scan per second, which is 80,000 seconds or about 22 hours, as Honeywell rates it; a full charge takes about 4.5 hours. The battery-free version runs on a supercapacitor: under 60 seconds to charge with a power adapter, about 450 scans per charge and 500,000 charge cycles.

Fewer rescans on poor labels

The 1280 × 1080 sensor reads codes with print contrast as low as 15% and tolerates hand movement up to 4 m/s on both the SR and HD versions. The green 525 nm aimer dot shows the user exactly which code on a crowded label will be read.

Contactless charging option

Both the battery and the battery-free scanner come in a contactless version that charges without metal contacts, which Honeywell says reduces failed devices due to corrosion. That matters where scanners are dropped into the base hundreds of times a day.

Less time lost looking for scanners

A Find My button on the base makes a missing scanner beep, and two separately configurable recharge alerts remind staff to put the scanner back in the base. An optional magnetic retention keeps it seated in the base when there is movement around it.

Built for daily knocks and cleaning

Engineered for 50 drops from 1.8 m to concrete, an 8 ft (2.4 m) MIL-spec drop and 2,000 tumbles at 0.5 m. The scanner is sealed to IP52 and the base to IP41, and every Ultra 1962 has a disinfectant-ready housing that can be wiped with the cleaners Honeywell approves.

Set up for your software

The base connects to your PC or POS over USB, keyboard wedge or RS-232. Allmark configures the scanner for your billing, POS or ERP software, sets suffixes and keyboard layout, and installs and trains on site.

Used in

  • Retail and supermarket billing
  • Self-checkout lanes
  • In-store inventory and shelf audits
  • Electronics manufacturing and component tracking
  • Warehouse dispatch and goods-inward desks
  • Kirana and modern-trade stores

For buyers in India

Using the Xenon Ultra 1962 in India

These are the points buyers in India ask us about the Xenon Ultra 1962. Mention the ones that apply to you when you request a quote.

Keep the base cool: it charges only to 35 °C

In a shop without air-conditioning, keep the Ultra 1962 base in the coolest corner, away from the shutter and direct sun. The scanner works from 0 °C to 50 °C, but its bases charge only between 5 °C and 35 °C; the battery-free version charges in the same base.

Scan supplier e-invoices where goods are unloaded

With a billing or ERP system that reads e-invoice QR codes, staff can scan a supplier's invoice with the Ultra 1962 where the goods are unloaded, instead of typing it. In Honeywell's tests the SR version reads a 20 mil QR code from 0 to 495 mm.

Order the HD version for tiny strip codes

A distributor that scans small packs with tiny codes at goods inward should order the Ultra 1962 HD version. Honeywell rates only the HD version for 5 mil Data Matrix (35 to 113 mm) and gives no SR figure for it.

More detail

More about the Honeywell Xenon Ultra 1962

In addition to a green-dot aimer to visibly enhance targeting and improve scan accuracy, the newly engineered and innovative scan platform empowers snappy scanning operations.

The Xenon Ultra 1962 battery and battery-free are available in a premium contactless version, helping reduce the number of failed devices due to corrosion.

Supercapacitors hold their charge for hours when fully charged. So operators who forget to place their scanner in the charger prior to break may not impact operations upon return.

The Xenon Ultra 1962 scanner can accept a lithium-ion battery or a batteryfree supercapacitor, allowing enterprises to have mixed device pools and flexibility in their fleets.

Two independently configurable recharge alerts remind the operator to place the scanner back into the base for charging, ensuring continuous operation.

Exploring for a different use?

If your job differs from what the Xenon Ultra 1962 is built for, these Honeywell models may fit it better:

  • Buyers who keep the scanner at one billing counter and want nothing to charge often look at the Honeywell Xenon Ultra 1960 (corded, same 1280 × 1080 sensor, 147.2 g).
  • Buyers who want a lighter cordless scanner with a replaceable battery often look at the Honeywell Voyager XP 1472g (210 g, 2,400 mAh, up to 100,000 scans per charge).
  • Buyers who scan on a shop floor with water, dust or cold rooms, often look at the Honeywell Granit 1991iSR (cordless, IP65 and IP67, works down to -20 °C).

Questions buyers ask

Xenon Ultra 1962 FAQ

What is the price of the Honeywell Xenon Ultra 1962 in India?

The Xenon Ultra 1962 price depends on the cable or accessories you need and the quantity. Ask our team for today's competitive price: share your requirement and budget, and we will help you choose the right configuration and send a written quotation with current pricing and delivery time.

We use the Xenon 1902g. Is the Ultra 1962 its replacement?

Yes. Honeywell lists the Xenon 1902g as end of life and names the Xenon Ultra 1962 as its replacement. The Ultra 1962 is cordless over Bluetooth 4.2, has a 1280 × 1080 sensor, a green-dot aimer and IP52 sealing, and its base connects over USB, keyboard wedge or RS-232. Tell us how many 1902g scanners you run and we can plan the change counter by counter, so billing never stops.

Should we choose the lithium-ion or the battery-free version?

Choose lithium-ion if one scanner works a whole shift: Honeywell rates it for up to 80,000 scans or about 22 hours per charge. Choose battery-free where the scanner goes back in its base between customers, such as self-checkout or as a second scanner at a bioptic counter. It charges in under 60 seconds with a power adapter, gives about 450 scans per charge and needs no battery replacement.

What does the contactless version change?

The contactless scanner and base charge without exposed metal contacts. Honeywell offers it for both the battery and the battery-free scanner and says it helps reduce failed devices due to corrosion. It adds about 8 to 9 g to the scanner (255 g instead of 247 g with the battery). It suits busy lanes where the scanner goes in and out of the base all day.

How far can staff walk away from the base?

Up to 100 m line of sight in the default Class 1 Bluetooth mode, according to Honeywell. Shelving, walls and metal racks shorten the real range. You can also set the scanner to Class 2 (10 m) so it stays near its counter. If you plan to scan across a stockroom, share your layout when you ask for a quote and we will suggest where to place the base.

Do we need the SR or the HD version?

SR suits billing counters and warehouse labels and reaches further: a 20 mil QR code reads up to 495 mm, against 392 mm for HD. HD is for very small codes: Honeywell rates only HD for 5 mil Data Matrix, so choose it for electronic components or small packs. If you are unsure, send us a photo of your smallest label and we will recommend one.

Will it work with our billing or ERP software?

The base connects as a USB keyboard, as a USB serial port, over RS-232 or as a keyboard wedge, so the scanned data reaches the field where the cursor is. Allmark configures the scanner for billing, POS and ERP software and for our own warehouse management system, and provides on-site installation and training.

Can Allmark install the Xenon Ultra 1962 and connect it to our software?

Yes. We install the Xenon Ultra 1962 at your site, set it to send data the way your ERP, warehouse or billing software expects (our own warehouse management system included) and train your team. Tell us the software when you ask for a quote, and we include the setup in the quotation.
