INTRODUCTION11 INTRODUCTIONDatalogic renews its range of industrial laser scanners introducing the PowerScan ®family: PowerScan ® D8330 and PowerScan ® M8300. Robustness and ergonomicsremain unsurpassed: clearly audible beeper and bright "good read" LEDs for areaswhere noise levels are normally high; the aim mode, which helps point to the rightcode, has now been extended to the whole PowerScan ® family. Optical parts arecompletely suspended on shock absorbers and a careful choice of the bodymaterials, such as the co-moulded rubber, protect the PowerScan ® from damagedue to "falls".New enhanced architecture, based on an M16 high-speed microprocessor, enablesexceptional performance for promptness and reading speed of standard codes aswell as the ability to read poorly printed and damaged codes. Puzzle SolverTechnology™, a patent from Datalogic, adds further strength to the PowerScan ®powerful engine.In all applications where mobility is a value, the new PowerScan ® M8300 representsthe key to increase productivity and flexibility in the working area.PowerScan ® M8300 communicates through a low power, license free radio in the433 MHz band (910 MHz for USA version) and allows bi-directional communicationbetween the base station and the host. PowerScan ® M8300 also includes a displayand a 3 push-button keypad. Thanks to these features, the operator can receiveinformation from the host, interact with the central system and visualize the coderead. The cordless system offers scalable solutions to solve simple applications andcomplex projects:• Point to point: each reader is associated with its own base station;• Multipoint: up to 32 readers transmit data to one base station;• Network: to cover a wide area, connecting up to 16 bases and 512 readerssimultaneously working in automatic roaming.PowerScan ® M8300 is 100% compatible with STAR-System™, the new DatalogicRF narrow band solution for mobile applications that provides the widest family ofnarrow band devices on the market.Your PowerScan ® reader is supplied with its own Quick Reference Guide, whichprovides connection, diagrams, reading diagrams, basic application parametersettings, default values, and specific technical features.
