Reads Current and New UCC/EAN Symbologies with Ease New ways of doing business require new types of bar codes to keep products flowing smoothly from producer to user. The Cyclone scanner was designed to handle new and emerging UCC/EAN-driven symbologies: The UCC/EAN Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) is a "stacked" linear bar code for items previously too small to be marked. Track previously untrackable data on products so that lot numbers, expiration dates, weights, prices and currency information are included in the bar code. The UCC/EAN Composite Symbology (CS) combines the standard linear UPC/EAN/JAN code, a proven tool for POS checkout, receiving and inventory tracking, with a two-dimensional (2-D) PDF417 portable data file that incorporates extended product information. Portable Data File (PDF) is a 2-D data file that holds up to 1 kilobyte of data. Choose the Best Scan Pattern for Your Application Cyclone Omni-Directional Scan Pattern: A rotating omni-directional scan pattern reads even truncated bar codes by eliminating scan pattern "holes." High Density Single Line Scan Pattern: The Cyclone's single scan line appears as a "mini" raster and scans multiple areas of 1-D codes to swiftly and accurately capture data on poorly printed and damaged bar codes. The single line is ideal for reading bar coded menus and pick lists. Bright LEDs indicate which scan pattern is working. For intuitive aiming accuracy, even in the brightest lighting conditions and for can't miss, single-pass scanning, the laser diode emits a highly visible beam for easy-to-see scan patterns. When you lift the scanner off the counter, it automatically switches from hands-free to handheld mode. The Cyclone immediately adjusts the scan pattern for optimum handheld data capture. Put the scanner back on the counter and it automatically returns to hands-free mode. If countertop space is at a premium, just place the Cyclone in the optional wall-mount stand. Premium Features and Unique Ergonomics Adapt to Many Uses The Cyclone's adjustable, built-in stand accommodates scanning a wide range of item sizes for efficient throughput. The ergonomically shaped handle fits snugly in the hand to ensure a secure grip. The large, contoured scan trigger is handle-mounted for easy point-and-shoot operation. The patented two-finger trigger operates with minimum effort and delivers superior sensory feedback. There's no need to change the scanner's orientation when changing the scan pattern. All of the scan patterns exit the Cyclone from the large, scratch-resistant and deeply recessed window at the front of the scanner. The broad, rounded stand supplies rock-solid support for checkstand or countertop use. For maximum non-slip security, rubber feet cushion the bottom of the scanner. Ingenious Design Provides Superior Throughput Symbol's attention to detail comes through in design elements such as the twin beepers built into the sides of the Cyclone scanner handle. The scanner beeper is loud enough to be heard by operators working in noisy environments. Cyclone scanners offer a host of high-performance features for unmatched adaptability at the point of sale. The Cyclone provides direct connections to IBM, USB, RS-232 and Symbol's Synapse "smart" cabling that provides connectivity to all popular host terminals. Synapse Smart Cables eliminate the need for separate scanner-to-host controllers. Electronic Article Surveillance deactivation is also an option; locating the deactivation antenna within the scanner saves precious space at the point of sale, and eliminates secondary operations. Advanced Data Formatting, another Symbol breakthrough, enhances Cyclone data capture productivity. No need to modify host-system software to match data input formats. Instead, simply program the Cyclone. The scanner translates the bar code string and, for later tracking, stamps the bar code prefix with time, date and the number of the employee who scanned the data. Like every scanner from Symbol, the Cyclone is an unbeatable value because it is backed by Symbol's global network of service and support from the world leader in bar code-driven data management systems, with millions of scanners and terminals installed.
