PSC Falcon 510 & PSC Falcon 515 Fixed Station Data Terminals

We had your multiple applications in mind with PSC Falcon 510 and PSC 515 Fixed Station Data Terminals

The PSC Falcon® 510 and 515 are the latest members of the reliable, feature rich Falcon® line of industrial data collection equipment from PSC. This new rugged fixed station terminal was designed with flexibility in mind; supporting open systems architecture, an extensive set of host connectivity options and interface capabilities for a wide array of data input devices. These rich features combined with an attractive price enable the PSC Falcon® 510/515 to operate in a wide variety of stand-alone and enterprise-wide data collection and system control applications.

The PSC Falcon 510/515 has a powerful 486 class processor, running at 33MHz, and operates under DOS 6.22. The Falcon comes standard with 8Mb of RAM, 2MB of Flash ROM, two internal PCMCIA Type II slots, a 15 line x 40 character mono or color display and full 69 key QWERTY keypad. Because the PSC Falcon® 510/515 uses a standard operating system, you can run applications previously developed for portable PSC Falcon terminals or other DOS computers. You can also use popular PC development tools like PSC's Universal Program Generator to create custom applications for your data collection and system control needs.

Innovative Host Connectivity
The PSC Falcon® 510/515 supports an extensive set of host connectivity solutions. The 510 can be configured as a stand-alone batch terminal with modem for remote applications or as a device on your existing Ethernet LAN. When configured as a device on your Ethernet LAN you get the benefits of real-time data sharing and storage at the central server, along with convenient features like multi-location upgrading of your application and configuration changes without removing a single unit from its physical location.

The PSC Falcon® 515 sets the standard for flexibility allowing both wired network and RF connectivity to your host. The RF wireless network capability provides the connectivity for data collection applications where physical limitations prohibit hardwiring and real-time information is critical. The Falcon® 515 can be configured with any of the leading wireless 2.4GHz spread spectrum radio options which include Aironet/Cisco, Lucent, Proxim and Symbol.

Additional flexibility comes when you use the PSC Falcon® 515 as terminals on existing legacy systems. With our PowerNet software these new Falcon® terminals can support VT100, VT220, HP700/92, IBM 3270 and IBM 5250 terminal emulations, with the ability to operate in both server and server-less environments.

A Multitude of Data Input Options
The Falcon® 510 and 515 were specially designed to support your various data input needs, along with standard QWERTY keypad, the system can be configured with an integrated reader for magnetic stripe or bar code swipe cards for labor tracking or security applications. Additionally the Falcon® 510 or 515 can receive input from bar code wands, undecoded laser scanners, and imaging scanners while controlling standard RS232 devices such as line printers, bar code label printers and scales. Finally, the Falcon® 510 and 515 can be configured with 16 User programmable I/O ports, 8 optically isolated digital inputs and 8 relay protected digital outputs. This unique feature enables these new fixed station terminals to be used for custom process and control applications.
