Chapter 1 Overview
Overview
The CA50 is a compact mobile device for in-building use that combines bar code scan capability with WLAN voice
and data communications. It offers mobile phone-style voice communications (walkie-talkie and voice calls),
wireless bar code scanning, messaging/paging and data application support for information retrieval. CA50 voice
capabilities greatly improve the accessibility of your workforce - mobile workers are never more than a phone call
away. The built-in bar code scanner and display, allow the CA50 to be used for a virtually unlimited number of
business applications such as price lookup.
The CA50 is easy to use and increases worker productivity and availability, while reducing errors and improving
customer service and satisfaction. The familiar and intuitive mobile phone-style user experience virtually eliminates
the need for training. Small and light enough to wear on a lanyard or apron, or slip in a pocket, this device is the
one device all your mobile associates should carry.
The CA50 can be deployed either as a personal or shared device. In environments where workers change shifts
and days, enterprises can enable employees to select any available CA50 - and a simple log in configures the
device on the fly with the right profile for that associate.
In addition to the CA50 mobile device, the CA50 solution includes a UCA server. The UCA server software uses a
database to store the data for configuring, maintaining and tracking the CA50s.
