The advantages given by the hardware/software
combination can be seen particularly in the reading of damaged low contrast
codes or those placed under plastic film or surfaces, as, for example, in
wrapped boxes, or in envelopes, CD’s and music cassettes covered in
cellophane.
Special attention was given to other elements,
increasing application productivity. For example, a keypad with 35 keys allows
quick and easy numeric data input. The large, high contrast graphic display
gives the operator optimum visualization of data and instructions through the
graphic options offered, such as the possibility of magnified characters, dual
intensity and backlighting.
Computing power and connectivity however, should
not be overlooked. The MS3100 has a 16 bit DOS compatible microprocessor and can
hold up to 4 Megabytes of memory. Applications can be developed quickly and
economically thanks to DOS compatibility, therefore protecting your software
investment.
Fast battery recharging and communication occurs
through single modules or in groups of 4, allowing RS232 connection to the host
and battery recharging in 90 to 120 minutes. The MS3100 represents a part of
Datalogic’s wide range of products and services guaranteeing the best
long-term solution for data collection and automatic identification
applications.
