Honeywell MS-201 Addon Global ID Scanner Module
Overview
The Honeywell MS-201 is a Swift addon global ID scanner module built to snap onto compatible mobile devices, turning a standard handheld into a document and ID capture terminal. It's a fit for deployments where staff already carry a mobile computer and need to add ID or document scanning without issuing a second device — think access control enrollment, age verification at point of sale, or field identity checks. The MS-201 connects over Wi-Fi, so there's no cabled tether between the module and the host device once paired.
Compatibility
The MS-201 is designed as an addon module for compatible mobile devices within Honeywell's Swift accessory line. Confirm host device compatibility against the specific mobile computer model in your fleet before ordering, since addon modules are typically matched to a defined set of host chassis rather than universal-fit.
Installation Notes
Pairing runs over Wi-Fi, so plan for the module to join the same wireless network segment as its host device — verify your site's Wi-Fi coverage extends to wherever the scanning happens (enrollment desks, entry lanes, field checkpoints) before rollout. No wired data connection is required between the addon and the host once the Wi-Fi link is established.
The MS-201 carries a manufacturer warranty; confirm the specific duration with your documentation at time of purchase, since warranty terms vary by unit and revision.
