MS9535 Voyager
BT ™ laser bar code scanner is a new member of Metrologic’s
Voyager series. Besides featuring the patented technologies of automatic trigger
and CodeGate, the VoyagerBT has incorporated the latest Bluetooth™ wireless
technology. This technology gives the customer the freedom of mobility, with
scanning up to 10 meters from the cradle.
Voyager
BT works hand in hand with its cradle. Before normal scanning, the
scanner must establish communications with the cradle by scanning a Bluetooth
address bar code. After communications have been established between the
scanner and cradle, futures bar code scans will be transmitted from the scanner
to the cradle and from the cradle to the host.
The cradle of the Voyager
BT also works as a battery charger for the scanner.
When resting in the cradle, the scanner can reach a fully charged state in 2.5
hours. When fully charged, the scanner can provide up to 12,000 scans. For
power saving, the scanner can be put into a full sleep mode by depressing the
CodeGate button for 5 seconds after the laser has shut down. In this mode, the
scanner can remain powered for up to 35 hours before the batteries require
recharging. To wake-up the scanner, simply depress the CodeGate button, and
the scanner will resume normal operation.
Voyager
BT includes ability to decode Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) bar
codes. Voyager BT offers checkout personnel the ability to scan bulky items
without the need for unnecessary heavy lifting by customers or checkout
personnel, making for added convenience. It can be used in applications
including supermarkets, hypermarkets, shopping clubs, retailers, light warehouse
and manufacturing.
