Opticon C37 Handheld Bar Code Reader

The Opticon C37 is a lightweight, ergonomically shaped handheld scanner engineered for comfort and efficiency during long scanning sessions. Designed to fit naturally in any hand, this compact reader excels in busy retail counters, warehouses, libraries, and healthcare environments where speed and accuracy matter. With multiple popular interfaces and straightforward programmability, the C37 adapts to your workflow, helping you streamline operations and improve productivity from day one.

  • Ergonomic, all‑day comfort: The C37’s balanced form and smooth contours reduce hand fatigue during extended shifts. Its lightweight construction and easy-grip design enable users to scan quickly without sacrificing comfort, whether used by right- or left-handed operators. This ergonomic focus translates into faster checkouts, reduced user strain, and improved accuracy across high-volume tasks.
  • Versatile connectivity for diverse environments: Choose from USB, Keyboard Wedge, or RS232 interfaces to match your existing POS systems, inventory desktops, or legacy equipment. USB offers plug-and-play simplicity, Keyboard Wedge lets you scan data directly into any text field, and RS232 provides reliable serial communication for older hardware. The C37 supports seamless integration in new installations and upgrades alike.
  • Easy programmability for tailored workflows: The C37 is designed to be easily programmable to suit your application. Configure common scan settings, specify prefixes or suffixes, adjust beeper tones, and fine-tune decoding behavior to align with your business processes. This flexibility minimizes training time and ensures your scans feed the exact data your systems require.
  • Reliable decoding of everyday barcodes: Optimized for rapid decoding of the most widely used barcodes, the C37 delivers swift performance at the point of scan. Whether you’re processing product SKUs, loyalty cards, or shipment labels, the reader's decoding engine is designed to deliver accurate reads quickly, reducing checkout lines and inventory reconciliation time.
  • Durable, low-maintenance design: Built to withstand the demands of a busy frontline environment, the C37 emphasizes durability without sacrificing ease of use. Its robust enclosure protects internal components, while simple cleaning and minimal maintenance keep downtime to a minimum so you can keep scanning with confidence.

How to install Opticon C37 Handheld Bar Code Reader

  • Step 1: Identify the preferred interface for your setup (USB, Keyboard Wedge, or RS232) and ensure your host device is powered on and ready to pair with peripheral devices.
  • Step 2: Connect the C37 to your host using the chosen interface. For USB, plug the connector into a free USB port; for Keyboard Wedge, connect to the keyboard/Data input line; for RS232, attach the serial cable to the appropriate port on your POS or PC.
  • Step 3: If you’re using USB HID (Keyboard Wedge or USB), the C37 generally operates in plug-and-play mode; you may hear a confirmation beep when the connection is recognized. For RS232, ensure the correct serial settings are selected on the host (baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits) according to your system requirements.
  • Step 4: Power on the scanner if it has a dedicated power switch, or simply begin scanning once connected. Scan a few test labels to verify data is transmitted to your application field correctly and that any required prefixes/suffixes are configured as needed.
  • Step 5: If you need to customize behavior, access the C37’s programming mode according to the user guide, adjust settings (with the preferred interface active), save the configuration, and perform a final scan test to confirm the changes are effective.
