6.1.1 PowerScan™ Standard, LR and XLR Bar Code Scanners

The 7530 G2 supports Psion Teklogix’ PowerScan™ industrial bar code scanner with standard, long range and extra long range options.

To connect this scanner to the 7530 G2, attach the device to the tether port at the upper-right side of the 7530 G2. Review your “PowerScan Programing Guide (PSC)” before you begin.

6.1.2 Entering Data With The Bar Code Reader

Note: For helpful scanning tips, refer to “Scanning Techniques” on page 49.

When a label is scanned successfully, the 7530 G2 will beep if configured appropriately and the scan LED will flash. Occasionally, the bar code labels are poorly printed or damaged and cannot be read properly. In this case, use the keyboard to enter data from the label.

Note: This RFID reader is scheduled for future release.

The RD7950 UHF RFID Reader is an EPC-compliant RFID reader available for Psion Teklogix rugged hand-held computing devices. Multimedia data capture capabilities are delivered by combining RFID with existing technologies such as laser bar code scanning or imaging.
