The PT630 is an
ergonomic, rugged, and lightweight hand held
terminal. It weighs only (245 g) and withstands
4-feet drops to concrete floor. Memory up to 4.5 MB
makes it suitable for demanding applications which
require large programs and data files, meeting
requirements for couriers, retail, asset tracking,
warehouse management, and many more.
Laser scanning options
include standard, high density (HD) for reading
ultra fine bar code labels, and high visibility (HV)
for reading bar code under direct sun light. There
is also an optional configuration with a built-in
wand. Ideal for low volume or budget-sensitive
applications.
User friendly design
The high resolution, backlit LCD display offers a
choice of 8x16 or 4x12 text mode, wich supports
international character sets. A 100x65 pixels
graphic mode is also supported. The 26-key rubber
keypad and a conveniently placed scanner trigger
allow one-handed operation.
Sophisticated power
management automatically activates standby and
shut-off modes to conserve the battery power. A
30-minute low battery warning provides users ample
time to recharge the battery.
A DOS compatible
operating system enables system integrators to
develop programs using industry standard C
compilers. Unitech offers, free of charge, a Windows
library for C, C++, Visual Basic, Visual FoxPro, and
Delphi. This powerful library enables system
integrators to easily modify existing host
applications to interface with the PT630.
Communications
An RS232 port allows data transfer to and from the
terminal. It can also be used to send information to
a portable printer. An optional communications
cradle includes a spare battery charger and an
additional RS485 port, which provides networking of
up to 32 units.
An infrared interface
and soft-contact charging pads ensure durability and
ease-of-placement in the cradle. There is also an
optional internal modem.
Software Tools and
Development
The PT630 comes with PT Comm Manager, a
Windows-based, communication program. The user
interface supports drag-and-drop and will
automatically detect the portable. Also included is
JobGen Lite, a program generator that lets users
create an application by visually drawing a flow
chart.
FormCaching,
an on-board, menu-based interface allows users to
design simple applications. It is only a matter of
defining prompts, fields, separators and their
attributes. And for those who need more control and
data processing power, JobGen Plus is the right
tool. It requires no programming experience and
includes on-screen simulation that saves valuable
debugging time.
