The barcode scanning terminal(PDA) used for scanning goods in the logistics industry needs fast scanning speed, and at the same time requires self-powered, long standby time, and good with the base can be charged by itself.

In addition, the communication distance requirement is relatively long, with strong anti-interference ability, with goods identification indicator.

The logistics industry automatic diagnosis product application is divided into indoor and outdoor two kinds of environment, indoor because of the warehouse speciality to scan the speed and the distance adjustment ability have put forward the higher requirements.

Users can choose barcode scanners that meet the standard-based environmental specifications according to their needs to maximize efficiency.

2.The choice of barcode scanning terminal(PDA) in retail industry

Customers in the retail industry are concerned about the quality of scanning when purchasing barcode scanners, and at the same time, they are considering whether the barcode scanner is fast and sensitive, with high recognition rate and high cost performance.

Whether it has the ability to scan broken or stained barcodes, lightweight and easy to use, easy to maintain.
