The LS4071 scanner from
Symbol Technologies offers
wireless scanning operation
for greater flexibility,
mobility and user
friendliness. Ergonomically
designed with the operator
in mind, the LS4071 also
provides excellent scanning
performance superior to
competitive corded scanners.
Key Features:
An RF working range of over
10 feet/3 meters. And since
it is wireless, there's
never any need to worry
about broken cables.
It uses adaptive logic to
provide excellent scanning
performance on all bar
codes, including damaged and
poor quality symbols. And
its brighter laser provides
improved performance in
brightly lit environments.
The LS4071 uses flash memory
to store system and
application software
modules. This allows for
easy field updates, plus
there's no need to open the
scanner and physically
replace the PROM chip. In
addition, its Synapse?
interface makes connectivity
to virtually any host a
matter of just changing the
cable.
Advanced Data Formatting

heavy use and is very
durable. It has a rubber
over-mold canopy and a
protective battery boot

Overview
The subject of covers is very broad.
There are many types of barcodes used by different industries. The
most popular include UPC-A, UPC-B, ISBN, Code 39 & others. There
are many kinds of reading devices including pens, CCD & Lasers whch can
be handheld, counter mounted or wireless. Barcode reading is just
an alternate input device. The barcode hardware translates
the barcodes to the equavalent of keystrokes.
Wands are difficult to use, you need
to learn the exact speed with which to swipe across the bar code and
usually need direct contact with the label. The CCD version
is not on until the trigger is pressed and needs to be within a few
inches of the label. The Laser version is always on and can
read bar codes from a much further distance.
Cougar has are a rather unique approach to handling
barcoding. Some software publishers force you to make your
stock number the barcode number. Others have a special field
to store the barcode number which is a problem since some products could
have multiple barcodes or the same stock number coming from different
sources may use different barcodes. Cougar uses its very very powerful
alternate part number ability to store as many barcodes for a particular
part as desired.
There are types of bar code formats.
The most popular include: UPC-A, UPC-B, UPC-c, ISBN
and Code 39. Basically, the industry your in, determines the
most likely barcode format you will use.
Most bar code readers and software can
handle multiple bar code formats.

Installation
I recommend that Bartender be installed on the same drive letter as the
Cougar MTN Software programs. It possibly
even be installed as a
subdirectory underneath Cougar's program directory (eg. f:\cmswin\bartend)
Barcoding Software
There are lots of different
barcode software packages available. They all generate bar
codes in different fromats.
Cougar employs Seagull's Barcode Generating
software called Bar Tender to empower a seamless intregration into
its Inventory Control and Management or purchase order modules. From the Inventory Control and Management
Report Menu> you can select the Inventory Control and Management label report, turn the barcode
option on and print one label, the number of labels in Inventory Control and Management or a
user specified quantity of labels. In P.O. Issuance and Tracking, you access
the receiving menu and the user can generate the number of labels needed
on a purchase order that the supplier doesn't have labels. The size and type of labels can be changed by enterring the Bar
Tender software and modifying the pre-designed files as needed. Menu-driven label printing software that produces
the bar coded Inventory Control and Management labels you need. You have
the flexibility and power of barcode generating software
that works with the information already stored inside
your Cougar MTN Software Software Inventory Control and Management data files. - Includes professional, pre-made labels
- Create new or customize existing labels
- Full control of label format and size
- Creates as many label formats as you need
- Unlimited number of bar code or text fields per
label
- Automatic check digit capability
- Supports a dozen bar code languages
- Intuitive pull-down menu
- Print bar codes from exported data files
- Batch printing capabilities
Barcode Printing Software is produced and supported by
Seagull Scientific.

Tips & Tricks
Installation
There is little installation of most bar code readers. Most use a
keyboard wedge/splitter to allow input to be entered from either the
keyboard or the bar code reading devices. Some bar code
readers use a serial port and some have their own interface card.
In addition, the reading device may need to be
configured to read each format of bar code needed and whether to read
the 1st
and last digit of the standard 12 character code.
