(ST3400)

CCD
Scanner,
isnowavailabletocustomers,accordingtoLizMichalec,MarketingCommunicationsManagerforthe Skaneateles Falls, NY-based manufacturer.

The ST3400 was developed to provide a cost-effective, highly improved CCD
technology that is flexible to varying data collection needs, Michalec
said. Designed with an ergonomic pistol grip, the unit can be easily aimed
and provides fast label acquisition. A special optic configuration spreads
a scan zone wider than the window width and increases the unit's scanning
depth of field to four inches from contact.

The ST3400's safe, durable solid-state CCD scan engine eliminates
durability concerns with moving beam lasers. An instant interface decoder
that is compatible with 13 standard symbologies is an option . The decoder
interfaces include Key Board Wedge, IBM/NCR/ICL/Fujitsu POS Direct
Connect, RS-232 or portable data collection applications.

Additional standard ST3400 features include FLASH memory for future
customer specific configurations and Dual Interface which gives the user
the ability to connect to a POS terminal and change to a portable data
terminal without reprogramming.
