DENSO ADC announces its new BHT-1200 Series of 1-D and 2-D  handheld wireless barcode terminals. By making barcode scanning quicker  and easier, the devices increase operator efficiency.  The terminals’ ergonomic design, which features a slim handle and  built-in hand strap, makes them easy to hold for long periods of time. A  specially arranged keypad, including 12 function keys, allows the  devices to be operated with only one hand or even with just a thumb. A  large, 3.5-inch HVGA color display lets the operator quickly see large  amounts of information at a single glance. 

DENSO’s advanced charge-coupled device (CCD) technology enables the  BHT-1200 terminals to read codes at 400 scans per second, three times as  fast as conventional laser scanners. The devices can read even  complicated or damaged codes at high speed, permitting fast,  uninterrupted scanning. In addition, they can read codes from as far  away as 25 feet or more, allowing the operator to scan items on all  shelves from floor to ceiling without having to change position or use a  stepladder. A built-in 5.0-megapixel camera enables photos of defective  or mislabeled products to be taken without the need to carry a separate  camera.  

The devices also feature fast, reliable wireless communication that  supports the latest IEEE802.11b/g/n standards, eliminating bottlenecks  due to slow data transmission. Highly reliable WPA/WPA2 network security  prevents unauthorized access to data.  Like all DENSO terminals, the BHT-1200 Series models have an extremely  robust construction. The devices have been tested to resist damage after  being dropped onto a concrete floor 30 times from 1.5 meters (4.9 feet).  “The BHT-1200 Series terminals feature our latest advances in  high-performance technology, all designed to make scanning quicker and  easier,” said Fran Labun, vice president, Sales Group. “They offer our  customers a way of increasing operator efficiency for even their most  demanding applications.”
