BAT TERY
Field-replaceable battery provides
greater than full-shift battery life,
even in scan-intensiv e applications
Automated data capture is fundamental
to ensuring patient safety in healthcare
workflows, driving an increased demand
for barcode scanners that can move with
the clinician. To address this challenge and
make it easier to collect data at the point
of care, we developed the SF61B healthcare
pocket scanner. Small enough to stow in a
pocket, it travels with the clinician and can
be quickly accessed or securely tucked away
when use of both hands is required. This
makes it ideal for today’s busy healthcare
environment, where complete freedom of
movement is essential and the ability to
scan should always be within arm’s reach.
The SF61B integrates with existing
healthcare information management
systems and—with the simple scan of a
barcode—easily pairs with iOS, Android
and Windows Mobile smartphones and
tablets. Its compact form factor is small
enough to fit into awkward or constricted
spaces, and a high performance imager
makes it easy to scan all 1D and 2D
codes—regardless of angle or orientation.
To ensure safe operation in patient-facing
applications, the SF61B uses a laser-free
design that provides high performance
scanning without the risk of eye injury
inherent in laser-based designs. Its
powerful white illumination field can
even double as a makeshift flashlight.
As a pocket scanner, the SF61B was
engineered for all-day wireless performance.
An integrated Bluetooth Class 1 radio
enables wireless communication at ranges
up to 100 m (325 ft) from the host, and its
field-replaceable battery has been tested to
last up to 25,000 scans on a single charge.
The SF61B is also highly customizable to
complement your healthcare environment.
With our free EasySet™ PC programming
tool, you can adjust security settings,
beeper volume, and even enable vibration
feedback. For example, a simple scan of
a bar code can enable silent scanning for
quiet areas, and audible tones can be easily
re-enabled for noisy environments. EasySet
can also be used to generate printable
configuration bar codes, making it easy
to setup additional scanners to match.
