Scanner Support

6

The 700 Series Color Mobile Computer is available with imaging or laser
scanning technologies, including the following:

APS Linear Imager: (standard for 730 Computers)

— includes the EV10 Scan Engine

Reads 1D symbologies and PDF417 bar codes. Linear imag-
ing using Vista Scanning technology reads low-contrast bar
codes, laminated bar codes, and bar codes displayed on CRT
or TRT displays. This imaging uses harmless LEDs for illu-
mination and does not require any warning labels. Vista Scan-
ning is more reliable than lasers as it is a completely solid state
with no moving parts or oscillating mirrors.

2D Imager: (not supported on 730 Computers)

— includes the IT4000 Scan Engine

This decodes several stacked 1D and 2D symbologies, includ-
ing PDF417, Data Matrix, and MaxiCode without “paint-
ing.” It can also read 1D codes from any orientation, for ex-
ample the scan beam does not need to align perpendicular to
the symbol to read it. Photography is a secondary application;
the lens in the device favors bar code reading. Photos are
640x480, 256 gray-scale.

1D Laser Scanner: (not supported on 730 Computers)
— includes the SE900, SE900HS, SE900-S6, and
SE900HS-S6 scan engines

Traditional laser scanner that decodes 1D bar codes.

PDF417 Laser Scanner: (not supported on
730 Computers)

Higher speed laser scanner that can read PDF417 labels by
“painting” the label.

A 700 Color Imager Demo application demonstrates the more common

User’s Guide

puters unless otherwise noted.
