(downloadable evaluation copy at bottom)

The Apex IV hand held terminal brings to the market, a rugged water and dust-resistant pistol-grip terminal for the warehouse, and manufacturing automation environments. Apex IV offers a unique combination of features and functions not available in any other device such as two user-accessible PC Card Slots, custom End Caps and an array of user-selectable Li-Ion batteries ranging in capacity from 3100 mAh to an impressive 4650 mAh. The Apex IV features include a full alpha-numeric keypad, full graphic display (240 x 160 pixels) with user activated backlighting, 8MB or 16MB of Flash memory and 4MB of on-board RAM. The Apex IV incorporates a 32 bit Microcontroller @ 33 MHz and is a Wi-Fi™ (IEEE 802.11b) compliant wireless LAN product.

The Apex IV supports Batch or RF operations via an internal type III PC Card port (capable of simultaneously supporting two type I or II devices). This port provides the user with numerous options for connectivity and memory expansion including, but not limited to network interface adapters, high speed modems (both wired and wireless), Flash drives and RAM disks.

Integrated into the Apex IV is a laser scanner. Laser options include standard, long range, very high density or advanced long range.

For immediate batch data collection usage, each Apex IV is shipped with the following tracking applications.
