INSTALLATIONProduct Reference Guide 11 INTRODUCTIONDatalogic renews its range of industrial laser scanners introducing the PowerScan™ BT8300 family. Robustness andergonomics remain unsurpassed: clearly audible beeper and bright "good read" LEDs for areas where noise levels arenormally high; the aim mode, which helps point to the right code, has now been extended to the whole PowerScan™family. Optical parts are completely suspended on shock absorbers and a careful choice of the body materials, such asthe co-moulded rubber, protect the PowerScan™ from damage due to "falls".New enhanced architecture, based on an M16 high-speed microprocessor, enables exceptional performance forpromptness and reading speed of standard codes as well as the ability to read poorly printed and damaged codes. PuzzleSolver Technology™, a patent from Datalogic, adds further strength to the PowerScan™ powerful engine.In all applications where mobility is a value, the new PowerScan™ BT8300 represents the key to increase productivityand flexibility in the working area. PowerScan™ BT8300 communicates through a low power, license free radio in the 2.4GHz band (Bluetooth®) and allows bi-directional communication between the base station and the host. PowerScan™BT8300 also includes a display and either a 3 or 16-key push-button keypad. Thanks to these features, the operator cantype unreadable codes or additional information (like quantity) and visualize the code read.
