1.1 - Introduction

CR3 is a revolutionary bar code and 2-dimensional code reader. Developed to be the first universal reader, no other
single device performs as many functions. With a cost of ownership far less than comparable systems, the CR3
incorporates a unique dual path optical system, a 1.3 million pixel CMOS sensor, and a 400 MHz processor. This
combination has created a reading system that supports:

High density matrix codes and larger low density

linear codes

Superior working range

High-speed omni-directional decoding

Cordless and cabled interfaces

Unsurpassed data read rates

The CR3 sets a new benchmark for size and weight. It is smaller and lighter than comparable systems yet can
withstand multiple drops to concrete. It is the only product available in batch, cabled or wireless formats; handlheld,
ruggedized cabled or battery handle use-case scenarios; and lanyard hook
attachment or reader stand form factors. The cordless version utilizes the latest
Bluetooth™ class 1 radio with a 300 foot operating range. The CR3 is rugged
and lightweight and the cordless version will operate for more than a complete
shift at the highest use rate. The CR3 performs more than 11,000 reads and
transmits from a single battery charge. The CR3 will automatically discriminate
between all major 2-D matrix and linear bar code symbologies and features a
timestamp feature for logging data.

Whether you need a small, palm-held device or a traditional gun, CR3 was
specifically developed
so users may easily choose the device that best meets their needs. The CR3 is
available in three basic configurations:

1.

CR3 Cabled - USB, RS-232 or PS/2 interfaces

2.

CR3 Batch - Store and forward device with memory and long-

life battery

3.

CR3 Cordless - Long life battery and Bluetooth radio
