For the most demanding
applications, the PowerWedge 20 is a universal decoder,
which can be used as either a keyboard wedge or a serial
wedge decoder. Over 300 computers and terminals interface
with the PowerWedge 20; in addition, an external serial
device such as a scale may be connected using an
auxiliary serial connector located on the back of the
unit. The PowerWedge 20 features input editing for data
formatting and redirection, host controlled indicators,
and serial baud rates up to 57.6K. The PowerWedge 20
supports 16 bar code symbologies and is fully
programmable using on-screen menus, a bar code menu, bar
code batch labels, serial batch files, or cloning. A
PowerWedge 20 dual model is also available, allowing
users to connect their choice of up to two input devices
and one magnetic stripe reader at one time.
The PowerWedge decoder
line offers many features and benefits, including a
smaller footprint, optimized performance, added
symbologies, improved trigger modes, and backward
compatibility with all current decoder cables and
settings. A cloning feature enables the user to program
multiple units in seconds from a single master
unit.
