The Phaser P360 and P460 memory bar code scanners
from Symbol Technologies are rugged, high-performance
devices that deliver the flexibility you need to realize
reduced costs and improved efficiencies in your business
operations—at the point-of- sale, on the factory floor
or in the warehouse.
Designed with a comfortable forward-scanning pistol
grip to minimize fatigue in scan-intensive applications,
these batch and cable-mode handheld scanners allow users
to collect data while freely roaming the premises.
The P360 and P460 offer easy system integration along
with a programmable architecture that extends
functionality beyond basic bar code scanners. Both the
P360 and P460 support the 123Scan setup utility
software, a convenient Microsoft® Windows®-based program
that helps reduce your start-up time and costs for these
scanners. This free utility enables you to configure
communication settings and enable/disable symbologies.
It also assists you in generating advanced data
formatting (ADF) rules to allow bar code data to be
modified by the scanner before it is sent to the host
application. The P360 and P460 scanners can be
programmed via PC download or by scanning bar codes
generated by the utility.
For added versatility, you can also purchase MCLTM-Designer
software, a programmable architecture that extends P360
and P460 scanner functionality. Even non-programmers can
develop custom data management applications to harness
the on board computing power of these scanners. Further,
MCL-Link communication software easily connects the P360
and P460 to your host. Capabilities include ODBC
database connectivity plus the automation of frequent
tasks such as nightly data downloads and look-up file
updates.
With the Phaser P360 and P460 memory bar code
scanners, you can choose the device that best meets your
application needs in any environment. The P360 is suited
for extreme environments, making it ideal for warehouse,
yard or loading dock applications. And the P460 delivers
the identical data capture functionality for in-store
uses like gift registry, POS scanning, inventory counts
and price verification. Both scanners deliver the proven
performance and affordability that customers have grown
to expect from Symbol.
