The Datalogic Lynx omnidirectional scanner is ideal for both linear scans and two-dimensional image capture and is an excellent fit in virtually any application. Featuring USB, keyboard wedge and rs-232 connection options, the Lynx also comes in a standard resolution mode and a high resolution mode. Use the high resolution mode for scanning small or closely-spaced tags. The image capture function allows image zoom, contrast, brightness and windowing right in the scanner, plus the included VisualSetup software tool makes configuration easy.
The latest addition to the Datalogic line is the Lynx, available in two models for standard and high resolution codes. The Lynx family performs omnidirectional reading on a wide range of symbologies from the most common 1D and 2D codes to stacked and postal codes, improving productivity and efficiency in any application. In fact, with the Lynx the user captures the whole image of the object to be identified no matter how it is orientated, thus avoiding any alignment constraint between the reader and the symbol to be read. Furthermore, the Lynx can be used for image-based applications like signature capture and OCR. The captured image can be processed on board or downloaded in different formats (.bmp, .jpg, .tif) for image processing on the host side. Also, the new image capture function allows complete image management. Up to 4 acquisition options allow image manipulation: zoom (from 20% to 200%), contrast, brightness (±100%) and windowing. Aiming at the image to be captured is easy and intuitive thanks to the double-click trigger for Point & Read, and to the "five dot pointer" that marks the four corners and center of the reading area. All models are equipped with a multistandard interface for connection to the host via USB (COM and wedge emulation), RS232 or Wedge emulation interface. Finally, the VisualSetup software tool included in the Lynx package allows easy configuration of all the parameters to personalize the reader for any application as well as a quick view of the downloaded images.
