P300IMG Industrial Bar Code Scanner with Image Capture

Rugged Imager with Multiple Capabilities

Symbol introduces the P300IMG rugged hand-held imager for reading all major bar code symbologies with the added capability of image capture. Powered by Symbol's SE 4200 scan engine and an award-winning ergonomic design, this industrial hand-held imager is perfect for applications requiring not only 1-D and 2-D omni-directional scanning but also the ability to capture images and signatures.

Designed for Extreme Environments (XE)

The P300PRO meets the most stringent industrial standards, earning the Symbol XE class label. It is sealed to the IP54 specification against windblown dust and rain, and withstands multiple 6-ft./1.8 m drops to concrete over the entire temperature range of -22° to 122°F/-30° to 50°C.
Its XE class ruggedness and high-throughput scanning ability make the P300PRO an ideal choice for a wide range of 2-D and 1-D applications in industrial environments such as distribution centers, manufacturing floors and warehouses

Innovative Design Features

As innovative as it is rugged, the P300IMG delivers the sophisticated ergonomic and operational features industrial applications demand. The scanner's exit window is scratch-resistant and recessed to prevent damage from direct contact. A twist-to-lock cable seals the scanner and provides superior strain relief. For those applications requiring quick access and out-of-the-way storage, the P300IMG comes with a built-in metal hook for attachment to a pulley. And the large, LED enhancing window and extra loud 75 dB twin beepers make the "good decode" feedback impossible to miss. Leveraging the award-winning Phaser "handle-forward" design makes the scanner extremely comfortable to hold and reduces fatigue when scanning throughout a full shift in scan-intensive applications.

PDF417, DataMatrix, MaxiCode and Postal Code

Whether your requirement is to read DataMatrix for small item identification, MaxiCode for parcel sortation, postal codes for mail-handling, omni-directional linear bar codes or PDF417 across a variety of applications, the P300IMG provides unmatched performance. The P300IMG-HD, high density imager, can read matrix codes as small as 5 mil DataMatrix, while maintaining great working ranges on all other symbologies.

Image Capture and Video Applications

For image capture applications, the P300IMG enables the creation of an electronic image database by delivering clear VGA resolution images while providing the user total control over image attributes such as compression quality, transfer time and file size. Understanding the need for instantaneous image transfers, the P300IMG's "thumb nail" image can be transmitted to the host in as little as half of a second over your PC's standard COM port. Leveraging its extremely fast image transfer capabilities, the P300IMG can also rapidly transmit sequentially captured images, providing a basic video output for host display.
