Socket CRS 9M and CRS 9P Series Bluetooth Laser Barcode Scanners
"The level of support you have provided makes me extremely glad that I purchased your product ..." testimonials.
The Cordless Ring Scanner (CRS) 9 will enable you to collect bar coded data without being tied to your mobile or desktop computer! This innovative device combines the power of laser bar code scanning with fuzzy logic and the convenience of Bluetooth wireless technology in a single compact, lightweight device that is ergonomically designed to provide a 'free hand' when scanning. The ring scanner and Bluetooth unit are both made of an exclusive LiquidMetal® construction for extreme durability providing a scanning solution for the most demanding environments. LiquidMetal is twice as strong as Titanium.
Bluetooth wireless technology transforms how devices connect with each other, offering you new possibilities for using your mobile computer with other devices without the hassle of cables or the awkwardness of a protruding antenna. Socket's CRS 9P features a powerful Class 1 Bluetooth radio, so you can stay connected to your laptop or desktop at the maximum possible range — even when connected to the weaker Class 2 Bluetooth radios found in many mobile devices. For maximum range a Class 1 Bluetooth radio is required on the host computer.
Bar code scanning is the most efficient way to enter data into a computer. If the data to be entered is bar coded, using a laser scanner is 50 times faster and 10,000 times more accurate than manual data entry. The CRS 9 complies with the UCC 2005 Sunrise Date mandate.
Solution for Repetitive Stress Injuries
Use barcode scanning for mobile workforce to reduce PDA injuries. Thumb RSI (Repetitive Stress Injuries) are well known for heavy and frequent computer keyboard users. This issue extends now to mobile devices, especially since most times the thumbs are used to input ALL data on the device (unlike keyboards where the keys occur across all of the fingers). Barcode scanning allows input of many digits with a single button push (or no button push at all when using hands-free scanning). This means using a barcode scanner makes it possible to significantly reduce personal injuries related to data entry, especially. for mobile applications.
SerialMagic enables the Socket CRS9 series scanners on all major mobile platforms including BlackBerry, Palm OS, Symbian Series 60, Windows Mobile. SerialMagic is also available for OS X, and Windows.
