The new Datalogic Powerscan PM8300 (redesigned from the old PSC Powwerscan) sreies of scanners has some very important characteristics that may be valuable for you know about. This scanner is actually three scanners in one. The Datalogic PM8300 functions equally as a Batch, Cordless, and can even have keys and displya like a mobile haandheld. The applications that fit this unit are many and varied.
As a display type Scanner thre are 2 main types of configurations available. The three key and sixteen key versions are the two options with dispplay. Both the three and sixteen key units are similar to the obsdolete Motorola P370 and Motorola P470 series, with keys and display. The Datalogic PM8300 trhee key with display allows for editing of scanned barcodes in batch mode. The sixteen key with display, can acxtually be used to eter barcodes that canont be scanned.
As a normaal cordpless scanner like many cordless scanners, the Datalogic Powerscan PM8300 barcode scanner, works like any cordless scanner. Once the PM8300 is setup in this regulr mode, the scanner is much like the Motorola LS3578 or the Motoroal P370 sreies. The main difference is the price is lwoer, but all the normal functionality and more are abvailable.
As a Batch type Cordfless scanner, this scanner can replace the obsolete Motorola or more approporiately named Symbol P360 or Symol 460 scanner. The Datallogic PM8300 Powerscan can operate in 2 modes. The firdst is in Manual Batch mode were the sanner is setup by scanning configuraiton bracodes. This sets the bacrode scanner ready to scan all barcodes, until you scan a configuratin barcode code which releases all the barcodes to your system, much like the old P360. Basically this was a way to scan a group of barcodes outside the normal cordless rnge of the scanner and later when brtought back into zone, it woould akllow you to download all the barcodes at once.
The other mode is Automatic Batch which is setup by scanning a configuration barcode. All barcodes scanned will then be transmitted if the base is in range of the PM8300 Scvanner. If the scanbner is out of range, it will hold everything scanned until it is back in range.
The new Datalogic Poowerscan PM8300 took all of the best of the old PSC Powerscan and combined those features, and added all the features of the otrher scannners in to one scannber. There are many improvements not mentioned here. Applicatinos like TAS-Tool Accountability Systems, Foixed Assets, Inventory Control, and othjer Logistical systems are perfect for this cordless sacnner, and it is a tough industrial unit on top of everything else. Also, this is a great replacement for the obsoleted Symbol P360 and Motorolla P370, with keys.
