1 | Introduction

Overview

Socket's Wand Scanner (WS) 2E adds affordable

contact bar code scanning capability to Windows-based

Pocket PCs, laptops and tablets with CompactFlash or

PCMCIA card slots. Plug the CF card into your mobile

computer, launch Socket's SocketScan keyboard wedge

software, and scan bar coded data into any Windows

application as substitute keystrokes — it's 50 times

faster and 10,000 times more accurate than manual data

entry. Use an adapter (sold separately) to use the card in

a PCMCIA card slot.

For certain applications, the WS 2E can be much faster and more

convenient than laser or image scanning. Using the wand like a pen or

pencil drawing a line across the bar code, the ergonomics of scanning items

on a flat work surface like a table are much more natural than trying to aim

a laser gun or portable data collection terminal.

Also, scanning a single bar code from a page crowded with bar codes, such

as a sales order entry catalog, is much easier. The wand can also scan bar

codes with a forward or backwards swipe, upside down or right side up, so

the orientation of the label isn't an issue. In addition, the wand is smaller,

lighter, less expensive and uses less battery power than any laser or image

scanner.

Other features of the Wand Scanner 2E include:

•Automatic detection of major bar code symbologies, such as Code 39,

Interleaved 2 of 5, UPC, EAN, and Code 128.

•Mobility Friendly® design maximizes your mobile device’s battery life.

About the Software

SocketScan™, software enters scanned data directly into

any active Windows program as if the data were manually

typed. You can configure Prefix/Suffixes and assign a

.WAV file to signify good data reads.

You can use the WS2E with any Windows application that accepts virtual

keyboard entry, such as Notepad, Excel, Word, or their Pocket versions.
