Datalogic Catcher Barcode Scanners

The Catchers™ architecture offers unique functions to the market. The advanced technology used for decoding increases the reading performance by making it easy to read damaged or poorly printed codes. The Data Editing and Data Formatting modes allow the code to be completely formatted before the information is sent to the host. In addition, thanks to the flash memory, the reader can be updated on the field, providing it with new functions and allowing it to read new symbologies.

Two Models Available
The Catcher Catcher™ D531 multi-interface (USB, RS-232, and Wedge) and the Catcher D511 which combines the standard serial interface with complete connectivity to IBM46XX cash registers are available. Both models are provided with the Single Line option. By simply pressing the button on the reader, the
omnidirectional pattern becomes a single line, which is very useful for manual reading of codes close to each other. The readers can also be configured in stand-by mode to minimize consumption when the scanner is not in use: the scanner will automatically wake-up when it detects a code. Confirmation of the code read is provided by a beeper that can be heard in loud environments and a bright led that can be seen even in well-lit environments.

Applications
The Catcher is the ideal solution for check-out counter applications in Retail markets and front-desk applications in Office automation markets such as manual reading of documents, envelopes and small packages in post offices and couriers.
