The Intermec® CK30 mobile data collection computer
continues the tradition of delivering on Intermec’s
promise of rugged, reliable computing that will position
your enterprise for the future with a combination of
best-in-class features and functionality, such as
thoughtful ergonomic design and integrated imaging
options. With an unparalleled capability to perform
legacy applications, the CK30 gives your enterprise
investment insurance because it is the ideal bridge
between the technologies you’re using today and what you
will need tomorrow.
The CK30 delivers the right blend of features and
performance with the Microsoft® Windows® CE .NET
operating system, designed to provide the optimum
combination of real time operation, tools support and
standard connectivity available today for battery
driven, mobile data collection devices.
The CE .NET operating system minimizes memory
requirements, reduces complexity and allows the
application developer to completely customize the user
interface that is appropriate or desirable. CE .NET
also supports mainstream application development tools
for starting from scratch or upgrading existing
applications. For client applications, the
forward-looking .NET Compact Framework and Visual Studio
.NET development tools will minimize any modifications
between different .NET devices that might otherwise be
required, including the Intermec® 700 Series Pocket PC
mobile computer.
With CE .NET, Intermec has added features to the CK30
that enhance mobile data collection such as a simplified
menu system tailored for key-based devices, display
icons to provide intuitive, graphic-based status
information to the operator and a data server for
editing, filtering and routing to save programming time.
The Intel® XScale™ processor, running up to 400 MHz,
provides more than enough power to drive the bright
color display, a range of peripherals, repetitive
scanning and wireless network traffic. It delivers the
level of response time and throughput required for real
time, mission-critical applications in warehousing,
distribution, manufacturing operations and retail
in-store management.
Because of the many configurations available, you can
tailor the CK30 to your usage plans to support a wide
range of applications. Three distinct keypad options –
ranging from the simplified 42 key to a full 52 key
alphanumeric keyboard – offer layouts for applications
that range from shipping and receiving, put-away,
picking, and cycle counting for the warehouse floor to
price verification, stock management, and returns in the
retail storefront. The CK30 applies superior technology
and thoughtful design to all of these scan-intensive
applications.
The device offers new linear imagers that deliver
reliability and ideal scanning capabilities for arm’s
length scanning applications. Users are also able to
select laser scanners for either standard range or
long-range applications. Additionally, an area imager
option also supports 2D symbologies, and users can
attach tethered scanners for additional ergonomic
flexibility.
Position your enterprise for growth by selecting the
64MB RAM/64MB Flash model with a bright color display
for the highest level of application flexibility. Or,
choose less memory and a high contrast mono display for
very thin clients or terminal emulation to reduce your
initial investment. Additional configuration
alternatives include Bluetooth™ for the convenience and
flexibility of wireless peripherals such as wearable
label printers.
Because the CK30 can run Intermec TE2000 as well as
third party terminal emulation clients, it enables
unparalleled portability of legacy applications for
mix-and-match operability with existing TE networks. In
addition, the CK30 offers investment protection because
it can run existing Intermec 2400 family applications
with only a re-compile. The CK30 is an attractive
upgrade platform not only for the many legacy C++
applications from the 2400 Family, but also from other
Intermec or competitive products.
Web-based applications can easily be implemented either
through Intermec’s text-based dcBrowser™ or the bundled
lock-down browsers based on Pocket Internet Explorer or
IE6.
The CK30’s Wi-Fi® certified 802.11b/g radios, including
a CCX (Cisco) Program certification*, insure consistent
performance by providing the best available wireless
network throughput and reliability. For off-line
applications, the CK30 batch model readily fits into a
single or 4-bay communication dock with USB, RS232 or
Ethernet host connectivity.
Security features of the CK30 are second to none with
support for traditional WEP and the new Wi-Fi WPA
standard, as well as full 802.1x compliance including
the Windows standard EAP-TLS and PEAP, EAP-TTLS and the
compatibility with many existing networks with LEAP
support. Government users can select the FIPS security
standard, also available to commercial users for
increased security.
The user-tested ergonomic design of the CK30 has
rendered a lightweight and uncommonly well-balanced
device that reduces stress and fatigue during extended
work sessions. Its sculpted back case is shaped to
comfortably accommodate any hand size. An optional
user-installable and removable pistol grip handle is
ideal for highly repetitive scanning situations or
accommodating user preference.
An additional design feature of the CK30 includes a high
capacity lithium-ion battery “back” directly integrated
into the shape of the computer, so users can not only
expect at least a full shift of usage without having to
change the battery, but also can avoid the complications
of a battery door. Intermec power management software
ensures the longest possible battery life between
charges. For user convenience, CK30 batteries can be
removed and charged separately, or the CK30 itself can
simply be dropped into charge-only docks – or even
re-charged while placed in communication docks.
The CK30 can be factory configured for English and all
Western European languages, or for display of Asian
fonts including Chinese, Japanese, Thai and Korean. |
