Description
ScanTeam 5700/HD products provide a unique Welch Allyn identity in the high performance category of laser scanners. The ScanTeam 5700/HD provides value and durability in an ergonomically designed enclosure. The ScanTeam 5700/HD series is available with Welch Allyn's Instant Interface Module, integrating bar code decoding and interfacing in the scanner. The ScanTeam 5700/HD is also available in non-decoded output for connection to an external decoder.
The Instant Interface Module provides aggressive bar code decoding, advanced data editing and formatting capabilities, and a wide range of host connectivity. All Instant Interface firmware is stored in FLASH memory which may be reprogrammed in the field by cloning from one unit to another, or by downloading from Welch Allyn's PC-based software tools.
Interfaces include a wide range of keyboard wedges, serial RS-232, wand emulation and proprietary direct connect to POS devices, such as NCR OCIA, IBM 5B/9B/17, and IBM/Fujitsu OCR.
Application
The flexibility and performance of the ScanTeam 5700/HD series scanners make them applicable to a range of applications from retail point of sale to back room, inventory/asset tracking, factory data collection, and office automation.
The Instant Interface Module also supports the dual interface feature. In dual interface mode, the scanner automatically configures itself to specific host parameters based on the cable attached to the scanner. The dual interface feature allows one scanner to serve multiple applications (e.g., workstation based factory data collection and Portable Data Collection), greatly increasing the cost effectiveness of the product.
