QUICKSTART GUIDE
INTRODUCTION
MAH 200 is a revolutionary new, bar MAH 200. Developed to be the first universal reader, no
other single device performs as many functions. With a cost of ownership far less than
comparable systems, the MAH 200 incorporates a unique dual path optical system, a 1.3 million
pixel CMOS sensor, and a 400 MHz processor. This combination has created a reading system
that supports:
• High density matrix codes and larger low density linear codes
• Superior working range
• High-speed omni-directional decoding
• Cordless and cabled interfaces
The MAH 200 sets a new benchmark for size and weight. It is smaller and lighter than
comparable systems yet can withstand multiple drops to concrete. It is the only product
available in handheld, gun handle, and presentation stand form factors with cabled,
batch and cordless versions. The cordless version utilizes the latest Bluetooth™ class 1 radio
with a 300 foot operating range. The MAH 200 is rugged and lightweight and the cordless
version will operate for more than a complete shift at the highest use rate. The MAH 200
performs more than 3000 reads and transmits from a single battery charge. The MAH 200 will
automatically discriminate between all major 2-D matrix and linear bar code symbologies and
features a timestamp feature for logging data.
Whether you need a small, palm-held device or a traditional gun, MAH 200 was specifically
developed so users may easily choose the device that best meets their needs.

TARGETING AND READING TECHNIQUES
The MAH 200 utilizes digital camera technology to take a pictures of a symbol. Once an image is
captured, the MAH 200 utilizes advanced decoding algorithms to extract data from the captured
image.
The MAH 200 is available as a palm-held unit or users may purchase a clip-on pistol-grip
handle.
The palm held unit features left and right triggers. These triggers may be programmed to
perform various features. The reader is shipped with the left trigger and right trigger functioning
as a decode symbol command.
The clip-on pistol-grip handle features a trigger on the handle. The two triggers on the top
of the unit also work when the handle is attached.
To read a symbol with the MAH 200:
1. The MAH 200 features omnidirectional decoding. Center the symbol in any orientation
within the laser dot aiming pattern.
The MAH 200 – with and without gun handle.
Laser targeting beam pointed directly into the center of this symbol.

2. The MAH 200 was developed to decode both very small 2-dimensional symbols and larger
1- dimensional symbols. The unit features two imagers to create an innovative dual decode
zone. The MAH 200 features a high speed processor and DECODES BOTH ZONES
SIMULTANEOUSLY. The unit has one imager focused on a near-field for smaller codes
(optimal focal point is 4 inches) and one imager focused on a far-field for larger codes
(optimal focal point 9 inches). To read smaller symbols move the MAH 200 closer to the
symbol. To read larger symbols move the unit farther away from the symbol. The entire
MAH 200 decode zone varies between two (2”) and sixteen (16+”) or more inches.
3. Hold the MAH 200 still - DO NOT SWIPE OR MOVE THE READER. Press the trigger
until the MAH 200 beeps, indicating the bar code has been successfully decoded.
NOTE: The MAH 200 can read a symbol that is not centered however, the MAH 200 performs
best when a code is centered. If two (2) bar codes are with the imagers decode zone, the
MAH 200 will decode the symbol closest to the center of the aiming dot.
