CipherLab Adds User-Friendly Features And Adaptability To The 8500 Wireless Industrial Mobile Computer
CipherLab, a leading innovator in Automated Identification and Data Capture (AIDC) for the retail, warehouse and distribution markets, recently unveiled the newly upgraded CipherLab 8500 Industrial Mobile Computer. This Bluetooth and Wi-Fi compatible handheld now offers a familiar graphical user interface (GUI) similar to Microsoft Windows and other comparable operating systems, complete with pop-ups and system dialogs, at a fraction of the cost. When compared with other terminals using similar applications, the 8500 delivers up to 160 percent more work per battery charge, increased reliability, an ultra-readable LCD display for multi-environment use and reduced vulnerability to viruses and other security problems.
The CipherLab 8500 now features:
- Pop-up touch keypad for easy alpha-numeric data entry
- Inline message box functionality for user notification
- Understandable system dialog boxes for monitoring performance
- Industry leading battery life of up to 32 hours in Wi-Fi mode, 400 hours in batch mode
"In some logistics settings, a more complicated operating system is not only unnecessary – it adds cost and requires more maintenance," explained Leslie Mesh, Senior Vice President of CipherLab Americas. "The 8500 now combines the benefits of a dedicated terminal with familiar graphics and pop-ups seen on most desktop computers. Best of all, it offers a tremendous cost savings to our customers over the lifetime of the unit."
