USER’S GUIDE Triton Wireless Hand-held Terminal
Data Capture and Bar Code Scanners
The Triton hand-held computer comes standard with a laser scan engine that is capable
of scanning single dimensional bar codes. Optionally, Lorax “Near/Far” Lasers and
2-Dimensional Area Imagers can be ordered for the Triton.
Bar code symbologies are always measured in mils. This usually refers to the narrowest bar
width. One mil equals 0.001”, therefore a 0.01” wide narrow bar would be a 10 mil bar code.
Conversion: 1 mil = 0.0254 mm
1 inch = 25.4 mm
Laser Style Scan Engines
Laser-type scan engines use a stationary laser reflected by a moving mirror and a highly
sensitive laser detector. The Lorax scan engine option allows for much greater distance
between the barcode and operator. All laser scan engines have the ability to project an
aiming dot to assist the operator in correctly reading barcodes at longer distances.
