If
you're a mobile professional using a Palm PDA or Pocket PC 2003
with an SDIO slot for an application requiring extensive data
entry, Socket's SDIO In-Hand Scan Card may provide an incredible
increase in productivity.
Now you can add affordable bar code scanning to your Palm or
Pocket PC 2003 device with Socket's SDIO In-Hand Scan Card.
Based on miniature Linear CMOS Imaging technology from Symbol
Technologies, the SDIO ISC scans all popular linear bar-code
symbologies and uses only 57mA of power during scanning to
maximize battery life.
SocketScan keyboard emulation software sends decoded data to any
Windows or Palm application as virtual keystrokes.
Using manual or virtual keyboards is the slowest, most
error-prone method of entering data into mobile computers. If
the data to be entered is bar coded, using a bar code scanner is
50 times faster and 10,000 times more accurate than manual data
entry.
Socket's SDIO In-Hand Scan Card brings a new level of
affordability and convenience to mobile data collection by
combining Socket's Battery Friendly SDIO technology with the
world's smallest bar-code scanner. Just plug the card into your
PDA, launch the included SocketScan software, and read bar code
data into any Windows or Palm application as if it had been
typed on a keyboard.
Socket designed the SDIO In-Hand Scan Card to be Mobility
Friendly--to use minimal power. Drawing only 8.0 mA (26.4 mw) in
idle mode, the SDIO In-Hand Scan Card lets you operate for hours
without having to replace or recharge your PDA's batteries.
Plus, the included SocketScan software transfers scanned data
directly into any Windows or Palm application as virtual
keystrokes--no custom programming needed.
Features:
-
Supported
in Pocket PC devices with SDIO Card slots. IMPORTANT: All SD
Card slots support memory cards, but not all SD Card slots
support I/O (Input/Output) cards. Pocket PC's must have the
SDIO Now! card services from BSQUARE included in the device
firmware. Almost all Pocket PC2003 devices include SDIO
Now!, but check the product specifications to be sure.
-
Supported
in Palm Tungsten, Zire and SmartPhone devices running Palm
OS v4.1 or later.
-
Automatically
decodes the most popular bar code symbologies including UPC/EAN,
Code 39, Code 128, Interleaved 2 of 5, MSI/Plessey, and
Codabar. Other symbologies can be enabled by user with
SocketScan Symbology selector.
-
Class
1 LED light source poses no safety or health hazards
Socket's SocketScan software for Palm and Windows converts
scanned bar code characters into virtual keystrokes so that
any Palm or Windows application treats the characters as
though they were typed on a keyboard.
-
SocketScan
enables the creation of prefixes and suffixes, such as Tab
or Carriage Return, to further eliminate keystrokes in the
data collection process.
-
SocketScan
SDK for both Palm and Windows CE available for developers
who wish to control the scanner and resulting data from
within their application.
-
This
Battery Friendly solution draws only a few milliamps of
current in standby mode, extending the battery life of your
Pocket PC No extra batteries or special power adapter
required. The SDIO In-Hand Scan Card gets power from the
host Pocket PC.
-
Works
with Windows or Palm-based development tools so you can
easily create custom applications.
