Chapter 1 The P470/P370 RF Scanner
Introduction
The P470/P370 cordless RF scanners bring new f lexibility and economy to data capture
and data management in both industrial and retail operations. The scanner communicates
with your host computer through radio transmission instead of through a cable. With the RF
scanner, you are free to scan and transmit without a physical cable, from as far away as
100 feet (30.5 meters) even without a direct line of sight. This lets y ou t ake the scanner to
where the work is, whether on the loading dock, the plant floor, t he warehouse, or the POS
checkout area. There are several versions av ailable:
• P470: cordless retail scanner
• P370: cordless industrial scanner
• P370 ALR: cordless industrial ALR scanner
Unless otherwise noted, the term Phaser refers to all versions of the scanner.
