Socket Mobile 3E - Manual (Page 5)

1 | Introduction
Overview
The Socket SD Scan Card (SDSC) 3E gives you the
freedom of scanning bar codes anytime anywhere
into your Pocket PC 2003 or Palm device using the
smallest and most lightweight form factor available
for an expansion card. In a small size totaling less
than 23 grams, the card features state-of-the-art
linear CMOS technology.
The world’s only bar code scanner built into an
SDIO card, the SD Scan Card is a small and sleek
unit with no cables or batteries. You can scan with
only one hand, letting you collect data with
maximum ease and efficiency. The most popular bar
codes are automatically detected.
About the Software
SocketScan™ enters scanned data directly into any open
Windows or Palm OS program, as if the data were manually
typed. You can configure Prefix/Suffixes and assign a .WAV
file to signify good data reads. SocketScan for Palm also
makes it easy to assign a trigger button.
If you don’t want to or can’t use a hardware button to trigger
the scanner, you can install SocketScan Trigger for Windows
CE (also compatible with Windows Mobile 2003). This puts
an icon on your screen that you can tap to trigger the scanner.
The trigger “floats” on the screen above any active
application.
