Portable In-Hand scanners are ideal for the mobile professional using a Pocket PC, Handheld PC or Windows notebook for an application requiring extensive data entry. Convenience and portability are brought to mobile data collection by combining Mobility Friendly CompactFlash technology with the world’s smallest and lightest laser scanner. Plug the card into your Windows-based mobile computer, launch the included SocketScan software, and read bar code data into any Windows application as if it had been typed on a keyboard. Drawing only 4 mA (13 mW) in idle mode, the ISC lets you operate for hours without having to replace or recharge your mobile computer’s batteries.
