Symbol Technologies PDT 3100, PDT 3110, PDT 3140 and PDT 3500 Portable Data Terminals

More Options for collecting, displaying and communicating data with Symbol Portable Terminals
They're small, lightweight, 16-bit DOS-based portable data terminals with optional integrated scanning. They're built for unmatched durability and designed for flexible, single-handed operation. No wonder the Symbol PDT 3100 Series from Symbol Technologies is the barcode data capture industry's most popular portable data terminal.

And now, with expanded display, 2-D laser scanning and Spectrum24-Symbol's next generation wireless LAN- capabilities, Symbol's family of portable data terminals delivers more options for collecting and communicating data that's vital to your organization:

• The popular Symbol PDT 3100 offers a choice of 4 or 8 line by 20 character displays. You can also choose between 35 or 46 alphanumeric or 21 numeric keypad configurations and optional, integrated linear (one-dimensional) barcode scanning capabilities.

• The new Symbol PDT 3500 offers a 16 line by 21 character display for viewing more data in a single glance. The Symbol PDT 3500 also features a 47 alphanumeric keypad and optional one or two dimensional scan head. And for fast, reliable access to data, both the Symbol PDT 3100 and Symbol PDT 3500 terminals offer real time communications with your host computer via Symbol's Spectrum One® or Spectrum24™ wireless LAN technologies.

Ideal for Data-Intensive Applications
Symbol's portable data terminals are ideal for data-intensive applications in a wide range of industries including retail, where portable data terminals bring new levels of speed and accuracy to shelf price audits, price checking, order entry, inventory control, shipping, picking and receiving. Transportation and logistics companies will find they provide more efficient ways to perform package/baggage tracking, picking and receiving, and cross-dock applications.

Scanning Options to Meet a Range of Needs
