1.1 LYNX™ BT DESCRIPTION
The Lynx™ BT Hand-Held Reader packs a lot of performance into an attractive,
rugged, hand-held device. It operates in commercial and industrial environments as
well as the front office.
Omnidirectional
Operating
To read a symbol you simply aim the reader and pull the
trigger. Since the orientation of the symbol is not important, the
Lynx™ BT reader is a powerful, omni-directional device.
Decoding
Thanks to powerful algorithms, Lynx™ BT reliably decodes all
major 1D (linear) barcodes, 2D stacked codes (such as
PDF417), 2D matrix symbols (such as DataMatrix), postal codes
(such as POSTNET, PLANET). The data stream — acquired
from decoding a symbol — is rapidly sent to the host. The
reader is immediately available to read another symbol.
FLASH MEMORY
Flash technology allows to upgrade the Lynx™ BT reader as
new symbologies are supported or as improved decoding
algorithms become available.
Lynx™ BT communicates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and uses the Serial Port Profile
(SPP). Paired with an OM-1000 BT cradle, Lynx™ BT builds a Cordless Reading
System for the collection, decoding and transmission of barcoded data. OM-1000 BT
can be connected to a Host PC through a USB, RS232 or Wedge emulation cable.
By using the radio connection test button it is possible to verify whether the Lynx™
BT reader is connected to the cradle via radio or not. If connected, the reader will
emit a single beep, otherwise no beep will be generated.
Thanks to the batch mode (see par. 5.6.1) Lynx™ BT continues to collect codes even
when out of radio range. OM-1000 BT also serves as a battery charger for Lynx™
BT.
Together with a Bluetooth
®
compatible remote device, Lynx™ BT also builds a
Cordless Reading System for the collection, decoding and transmission of barcoded
data. The Bluetooth
®
compatible remote device can be a PC, PDA, printer, etc with a
built-in Bluetooth
®
device or with external Bluetooth
®
adapter (i.e. Bluetooth
®
dongle).
