Operation Modes

The scanner has four operation modes:



  • Barcode Scanning - Read a tube barcode to view it on the screen
  • Picklist - Enter a picklist using the associated Client and read the tubes with the handheld device to ensure you have the correct tubes while at the freezer
  • Data View - Read a barcode to see the details of the sample in the tube
  • Data Entry - Read a barcode and enter the information on the same to store

Client App

To assist with the transfer of data on and off the handheld so that it can be used in environments with no computer network available the handheld comes with an associated client application to help define the data to store and load/unload it onto the handheld. This allows you to go into the deepest darkest corners of your sample storage and still be able to access your data!
