Industry Leading Data Terminal with New Enhancements
The PDT 3100 from Symbol Technologies is the bar code data
capture industry's most popular portable data terminal with a
proven history of performance and reliability second to none. A
wide variety of flexible options – including a choice of displays,
keypads, bar code scanning and communications – enable the PDT 3100
to be customized to best fit the needs of your application. Users
can select from 4- or 8-line by 20 character displays, 35- or
46-key alphanumeric keypads, optional integrated 1-D scanning, and
either batch or wireless communications via Symbol's
Spectrum24® wireless LAN technology. An improved display
is sharper and easier to read, even in bright light. And a new and
improved scan engine delivers robust scanning performance.
High Performance First-Time Every-Time Scanning
The PDT 3100 Series offers outstanding scanning for the most
demanding environments. The SE1200 HP scan engine delivers faster
scanning with the ability to easily read bar codes through plastic
and other protective coatings, poor quality bar codes, and
reflective and low-contrast symbols as well. In addition, the
flexible scan head can rotate, enabling left- or right-handed
scanning.
Ideal for Data-Intensive Applications
The PDT 3100 Series is ideal for data-intensive applications in
a wide range of industries including retail, where portable data
terminals bring increased efficiency and accuracy to shelf price
audits, price checking, order entry, inventory control, shipping,
picking and receiving. In transportation and logistics
environments, the PDT 3100 enables more efficient package/baggage
tracking, picking and receiving, and cross-dock applications.
Proven Past, Unlimited Future
One of the industry's most proven and robust portable data
terminals, the PDT 3100 Series offers flexible options to meet your
needs today and in the future, with performance and reliability you
can count on. It's another example of strategic thinking from
Symbol, the worldwide leader in bar code-driven data management
systems. To find out how terminals in the PDT 3100 Series can work
