Introduction
The new Datalogic Falcon X3 mobile computer delivers the ultimate in ruggedness, ergonomics, computing and data capture technologies. Falcon X3 options provide a tailored solution for demanding environments needing real time transaction visibility. The Falcon X3 delivers rugged construction, laser and image data capture, along with real time communications in a product that is effortless to develop for, deploy and manage.
Enterprises rely on accurate inventories to both plan and manage activities. Three data capture options optimize the Falcon X3 to the application. A laser scanner tackles high volume environments where speed is essential to receiving and shipping operations. The imager captures linear, stacked and 2D codes to reduce failed reads due to damaged and poor quality barcodes. An optional camera takes pictures for the documentation of damaged or returned goods. Datalogic’s patented Green Spot good read feedback reduces errors in both noisy and quiet environments. For applications like cross docking where bar codes can be close at hand or far away, an auto ranging laser offers an aggressive scanning solution.
The parallel computer architecture of the Falcon X3 melds the strengths of an XScale™ PXA310 microprocessor with a Cortex-M3 coprocessor. This combination gears the device for real time information management. Memory of 256 MB RAM / 256 MB Flash accommodates multiple simultaneous applications, for managing large databases or enabling off-line autonomy of thick applications. A Micro SD Card Slot provides a simple way for users to increase memory storage capacity as needed. The Falcon X3 tailors itself to the information technology practices of the enterprise through either the Microsoft Windows CE 6.0 or Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.5 operating system.
