Pocketable Productivity for People on the Move
Symbol Technologies has maximized efficiency,
functionality and productivity in a new
pocket-sized Palm Powered™ device—the
SPT 1550. Equipped with the latest processing
technology and features, the SPT 1550 is a
powerful productivity tool, enabling users to
capture and manage data faster and easier than
ever.
Superior Features for Maximum Performance
The SPT 1550 is 100% compatible with Palm OS®
hardware and software and offers mobile
professionals significant advantages with
benefits in data capture, information access and
computing power. The SPT 1550 features an
integrated scan engine and conveniently placed
scan triggers, enabling fast, efficient, and
accurate data capture. This is the smallest,
lightest, and brightest engine available today,
enabling the SPT 1550 to deliver premium
performance bar code scanning.
The SPT 1550 comes with a generous 8 MB of RAM
and 4 MB of ROM, for application or data storage
needs, and its 33MHz processor allows
applications to run at peak speeds, keeping pace
with business demands. With its touch-based
graphical interface, push-button controls, and
backlit 160 x 160-pixel display, the SPT 1550 is
easy to use, even outdoors or in dimly lit
spaces. Two AAA batteries deliver hours of
power, or an optional rechargeable NiMH battery
kit is available. The SPT 1550 supports both
single and multi-slot cradles for flexible host
communications in most network and user
environments.
The Point of Activity Advantage
The SPT 1550 is designed for convenient
operation in the office or on the road. Its
ease-of-use and functionality lend themselves to
applications in a host of industries.
Salespeople can enter customer information, scan
items from a bar-coded catalog and check
downloaded price lists, enabling more time to
sell and less time doing paperwork. With its
laser scanning capability, the SPT 1550 can also
help increase efficiency in the office,
streamlining processes such as office supply
ordering. Medical professionals can take
advantage of the SPT 1550's mobility, using the
device for patient verification, bedside drug
administration and a host of applications used
hospital-wide.
Teachers and education professionals can use the
device to access and update student records,
including daily attendance and grading. With its
easy to use interface, consumers can also enjoy
the benefits of scanning with the SPT 1550.
Instead of written shopping lists, consumers can
scan items as they are depleted, creating an
electronic shopping list. This electronic list
can be used on the next shopping trip or
uploaded over phone lines to the local store or
e-commerce websites.
Tailor Applications for Your Business
Any business can tailor the adaptable SPT 1550
to boost the productivity of its mobile
professionals. Because the device is based on
the Palm platform, programmers can build
solutions using familiar Palm OS®
development tools.
The Palm OS Software Development Kit (SDK)
includes the Symbol Application Programming
Interfaces (API) for controlling the scanner and
manipulating data input, and trial versions of
several of the most popular Palm development
environments. A growing roster of software
companies support the SPT product family with
tools for network and database connectivity.
