MFM1321Q
Wide-Angle Fixed 2D Scanner for Kiosks & Access Control

Intuitive Contact Scanning for Self-Service

The MFM1321Q Series enables a frictionless user experience with its omni-directional and contact scanning capabilities. Equipped with a specialized wide-angle lens, it captures large QR codes at near-to-contact range, while its optimized optics effortlessly decode barcodes from dim or dark smartphone screens. Designed for intuitive operation, it ensures rapid throughput at access gates and payment kiosks without requiring precise alignment.

Key Features: Contact Scanning, Wide-Angle Optics & Elegant Design

Wide-Angle Contact Scanning

The wide-angle optics capture large QR codes right up close to the window (from 15 mm), helping eliminate reading dead zones at the gate.

Omni-Directional Reading

Omni-directional scanning allows users to simply "swipe and go" from any angle without needing to align the barcode.

Superior Dark Screen Performance

Specially designed to decode barcodes from smartphone screens with low brightness or dark mode settings.

Elegant Integration Design

Features a sleek, compact aesthetic that fits seamlessly into modern turnstiles and countertop payment terminals.

Plug-and-Play Interfaces

Supports USB HID and USB-Serial interfaces for easy integration into space-limited enclosures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does contact scanning mean here?
Users can hold a phone or ticket right up to the window. The wide-angle lens reads large QR codes from as close as 15 mm (20 mil QR Code: 15 to 120 mm), so users do not need to step back or align the code.

Can it read QR codes on a dark phone screen?
Yes. The optics are specially designed for reading barcodes on dark or low-brightness smartphone screens.

Which interfaces are supported?
USB HID and USB Virtual-COM. It runs on 5V DC and is operated in presentation mode (auto sensing).

How far can it read?
Measured at 600 lux with standard barcodes: 13 mil EAN13 from 15 to 135 mm, 20 mil QR Code from 15 to 120 mm, and 6.67 mil PDF417 from 0 to 30 mm (tolerance ±10 mm).

How big is it?
42 x 40 x 20 mm (W x H x D). It weighs 50 g ± 5 g with cable and without the stand.
