The Newland HR32 Marlin Bluetooth HC-2 is a wireless 1D/2D barcode reader designed for reliability in medical environments, but also in retail and logistics. Its megapixel imager offers fast reading on damaged labels or screens. Bluetooth 5.0 ensures a range of up to 50 m, the 2,400 mAh battery covers ≥ 12 h, the "batch" memory stores ≈ 15,000 codes. IP52 chassis, drop resistance up to 1.5 m and pairing of multiple readers on a single base.
Designed for healthcare environments, the Newland HR32 Marlin Bluetooth HC-2 ensures reliable reading of 1D/2D codes on patient wristbands, infusion bottles and bags, pharmacy/lab labels and screens (PDA/PC). Its megapixel imager quickly captures dense or damaged codes, including long/truncated 1Ds, for secure identity monitoring, drug administration and sample traceability. The HC (Healthcare) versionadopts a casing compatible with regular disinfection, adapted to the cleaning protocols of departments (ER, OR, ICU, imaging). The Bluetooth 5.0 link brings mobility to the patient's bed (range up to approx. 50 m in free field) without annoying cables, and the≥ 12 h autonomy ( 2,400 mAh battery) covers a full shift. In areas without coverage (cellars, elevators, protected areas), batch mode stores approx. 15,000 codes (Code 128) for later synchronization. IP52 and drop resistance up to 1.5 m complete the robustness required in everyday hospital life.
On the operating side, the base unit enables several readers to be paired on the same workstation (up to 7), making it practical for a shared bench in a hospital pharmacy or laboratory. The EasySet tool facilitates deployment (data formatting, transmission rules, parameters), limiting input errors and accelerating integration with HIS/LIS systems via USB or RS-232. LED signals + buzzer to confirm reading, typical recharge time ≤ 4 h, and multi-year manufacturer's warranty ensure secure operation. The result: a reader designed to streamline care, reduce re-scans and ensure reliable end-to-end traceability.
Megapixel optics (≈ 1280 × 800), combined with green aiming and optimized illumination, guarantee wide reading tolerance: small 2D markings on bulbs, low-contrast labels, bent or partially damaged codes, and on-screen reading (bedside/hand hygiene applications). Depths of field cover common hospital symbologies (EAN/Code 128/QR/Datamatrix), with a typical min. contrast ≈ 25% to preserve speed even on partially faded thermal prints. Bluetooth 5.0 ensures more robust communication in the face of interference, and the base manages rapid re-association for shared carts. Batch mode (≈ 15,000 codes) protects service continuity during radio micro outages; on reconnection, the base unit dumps the readings into the application without complex handling.
Pour l’IT, EasySet standardise les configurations (profils par service, préfixes/suffixes, règles de validation), accélérant les déploiements multi-sites et réduisant les tickets helpdesk. Les interfaces USB/RS-232 couvrent aussi bien les postes récents que certains équipements legacy. Les indicateurs LED/sonores s’intègrent aux environnements bruyants (pharmacie, logistique interne). Côté exploitation, la batterie 2 400 mAh (≥ 12 h d’usage typique) limite les rotations et la charge <= 4 h synchronise bien les cycles jour/nuit. Le châssis IP52 et la résistance 1,5 m réduisent la casse en service. Températures de fonctionnement étendues et socle robuste (≈ 1 m) fiabilisent l’usage en dépôts, circuits logistiques ou zones techniques. En somme, un lecteur pensé à la fois pour les contraintes cliniques et les exigences de l’IT hospitalière en matière de disponibilité, intégration et TCO.
