General FAQ's
In its simplest form, a handheld terminal is used to communicate with any type of microprocessor-based product. The keypad is used to input commands or data, while the display is used to read output from the microprocessor.
If you are looking to give your products a competitive edge, a handheld terminal or computer will provide you with many advantages...such as intuitive operation, lower operation expense, improved product appearance, and time.
- Intuitive Operation—Through a variety of keypad styles, we can help you design the keypad graphics to provide the operator with controls that often do not require an operator's manual. Intuitive operation is the key to a successful product. If your product requires a keyboard entry for various operations, why not have a key that clearly spells out the operation to be performed? A key that says "START" is far easier to understand than an "S," or worse, an "F1."
- No expensive keyboard or CRT—A well-designed handheld can be made simpler to operate and takes up less room than a full-sized keyboard and CRT combination.
- Improved Product Appearance—A handheld can either be a prominent part of your product design or it can be hidden behind a panel. The graphics can be as subtle or as dazzling as you choose. Ask to see samples of our keypad graphics, you may be in for a pleasant surprise.
- Time—Custom graphics, firmware, keypads, logo tags, serial tags in a matter of weeks, not months. We can design a completely custom product for your application and have it in your hands in weeks. If you need a quick, fully customized unit for photographs or demonstration, we can have it to you in just a few short days.
