June 1, 1992 -- The SCANTEAM 3000 from Welch Allyn is a bar code scanner
based on solid state CCD imaging technology. Manufactured in the USA the
unit supports multiple interfaces - to host devices with either laser or
contact wand decoding or with on-board decoding for keyboard port, OCIA,
IBM POS, RS232 and OCR compatibility. The choice of automatic, motion
activated or manual triggering allows the user to control power
consumption where required.

Output parameters, determined by the interface cable, are programmable via
bar code menu. A simple cable change equips one reader for multiple
applications. Flash E2 PROM technology allows firmware modifications
through host download or cloning, providing greater flexibility and longer
product life.

The SCANTEAM 3000 offers scan speeds of 50, 100 or 200 per second. The high
resolution unit quickly and accurately reads bar codes on curved or
irregular surfaces and tolerates a wide range of printing media and
quality. A 3" window accommodates bar codes of varied length.

Solid state construction eliminates moving parts and the SCANTEAM 3000
offers higher reliability and lower life cycle costs, making it a
cost-effective substitute for a laser in many applications. The high
degree of interface flexibility allows one SCANTEAM 3000 unit to serve
multiple work stations and applications.

Quantity one price for reader only is $595., reader with on-board decoding
$695. excluding interface cable. Product is available for shipment now.
