Cordless Readers
There are at least four RF Scanners available on the market. These units have
decoder, battery, and transmitter built into the scanner -- allowing cordless
scanning back to a base station/decoder. Their range varies from 20-30 feet
from the base station.
Below is pictured the Worth Data R/F Laser Scanner. It has a range of 100
feet. It reads 0-18" away from the bar code. Competitive RF Laser Scanners cost
considerably more. The two-way laser version has a "good read" indicator as
well as a confirmation "base received data" beeper in the laser scanner, so you
don't have to be near the base station to hear a "good read" received. The Base
Station connects to a PC or Mac in series with the keyboard or it connects to a
serial port. Multiple 2-way laser scanners per base station are possible.
Worth Data also offers two wireless CCD products – the LI101-RF 1-Way RF
CCD Scanner and the LI102-RF 2-Way RF CCD Scanner. Both work in the same
fashion as their 1-Way and 2-Way Laser relatives in terms of RF communication,
but have a read distance of up to 11” instead of the lasers 18”. The LI101-RF and
LI102-RF are considerably less expensive than the RF Lasers.
