Designed for Quick and Easy Integration

The MS47 Series features a small footprint and mounting hole locations on five sides, so it can easily be positioned to fit into tight locations to accommodate the design of your enclosure. It also includes a Micro USB connector that supports standard off-the-shelf cables to match your design requirements. Multiple cable routing options on the MS47 Series help to minimize cable clutter for a clean overall installation within your enclosure. The MS47 Series comes ready out of the box with all the product approvals and certifications needed to minimize design cycles and regulatory approval cycles.

Integration into your product design is easy—no optical, mechanical or electrical engineering required. And, regardless of which MS47 Series model you choose, the integration is identical.


Enhanced Presentation Mode Performance

The MS47 Series features Zebra’s exclusive PRZM Intelligent Imaging technology for unparalleled presentation scanning performance on virtually any 1D and 2D barcode, including dense, poorly printed, damaged, crinkled, faded, distorted, low-contrast, and glossy printed barcodes, as well as barcodes on plastic ID cards or from mobile phone displays. With the popularity of mobile phone applications increasing, electronic versions of tickets, boarding passes, and loyalty cards are easily scanned with the MS47 Series providing a high level of customer convenience. The MS4727 and MS4777 models combine intelligent illumination, a global shutter sensor and high frame rate which is an ideal fit for demanding swipe-and-go use cases such as self-checkout and high-traffic turnstiles, where users present their ticket while walking in one continuous motion. The MS4717 model offers a rolling shutter sensor which is well-suited for everyday presentation applications. Options for either software trigger or presentation mode scanning provide the flexibility for a wide variety of applications.


Optional Flush-Mount Configuration

For kiosk applications that include contact scanning, all versions of the MS47 Series are available as a flush-mount option.

This configuration delivers the same aggressive scanning performance, but allows users to simply place their barcode up against our scratch-resistant exit window for quick and easy decoding. Mounting holes for this configuration comply with the European Vending Association (EVA) specification to simplify integration. And, the flush-mount design enhances the aesthetics and ease of use of the kiosk it is integrated into.


Aimer and Illumination Options That Fit Your Needs

Provide customers with a choice of different aimer and illumination options that best meet their application needs. The MS4717 has a familiar red illumination and amber LED aimer dot and is well-suited for everyday applications. The MS4727 offers white illumination with green LED aimer which is the best fit for environments sensitive to red light sources. And, the MS4777 has white illumination with a laser aimer which is ideal for outdoor or high ambient light applications that require improved visibility. Regardless of which aimer and illumination you choose, users will instantly know if they are aiming at the right spot for exceptional ease of use. 


Built-to-Last Rugged and Durable Design

With your installations likely spread out across many locations, it is important that your fixed mount imager is made to last with a durable design for maximum uptime. The MS47 Series features a chemically-strengthened scratch resistant exit window, and the standard version is IP54 sealed, which is suitable for outdoor applications such as at the gate admissions turnstile at the local sports arena to uncovered parking access gates. The standard version of the MS47 Series also has a rating of multiple 5 ft./1.5 m drops to concrete to protect it in the unlikely event of a drop during a routine service or field installation of your enclosure. For added reliability, a secure USB cable locking clip is included to prevent it from coming loose or disconnecting.

Add Vision Capabilities to Your Workflow

The MS47 Series supports Zebra’s user-friendly Aurora™ Vision Studio machine vision software for industrial image analysis. This suite of graphical software helps users easily create custom machine vision applications, executed with images from OEM imaging products like the MS47 Series, that give them greater visibility into the status and condition of their goods and assets. Our comprehensive portfolio of Aurora Vision software products can be used by enterprises in a wide range of verticals to develop both simple and advanced vision applications quickly and easily. They can help your customers define and monitor the physical characteristics of any product or packaging–to assess whether an individual item or pack of products meets predetermined quality standards. Adding vision capabilities to any workflow application gives your customers far more information about the physical state of a product than a simple barcode can provide. The adoption and easy integration of machine vision capabilities into real-world industrial imaging applications, enabled by Zebra OEM imaging products like the MS47 Series, helps enterprises save time, cost and resources while protecting end customers as well as their own brand value.


Industry Leading Configuration Wizard

123Scan is Zebra’s proprietary software tool, offering a wizard-driven interface that simplifies every step of deployment, from configuration to firmware updates and staging large numbers of devices. 123Scan automatically detects and programs the MS47 Series without scanning a barcode or wiping clean your existing settings.
