Improving Patient Safety

The Intermec SG20 high performance
healthcare scanner features responsive
and reliable per formance to help
eliminate errors and improve patient
care. Whether at the admitting desk,
nurses’ station, patient bedside, lab or
pharmacy—the SG20 minimizes the time
and eor t to read a bar code, improving
productivity while ensuring important
verification processes are completed.

Responsive and Comfortable Scanning

Scanners have long been the de facto
data capture device for healthcare,
but are often slow, unreliable and not
well suited to these environments.
The SG20 is built to excel in the hospital,
with the industry’s fastest omnidirectional
2D bar code reading technology and
more motion tolerance than competing
devices. This ensures all common 1D
and 2D bar codes are scanned easily and
consistently, at any orientation, without
time-consuming item repositioning
or disturbance to resting patients.

A variety of communication options make
the transition to automatic bar code data
capture fast and easy. Connecting to
your existing infrastructure is easy with
support for USB, RS232, and keyboard
wedge cable interfaces—as well as optional
Bluetooth® wireless connectivity.

Perfectly Matched to Your Needs

Healthcare scanners are often used at the
point of care where infection control is crucial.
The disinfectant-ready housing of the SG20,

when combined with a protocol of frequent
disinfecting, can minimize the spread of
infectious diseases while providing years of
reliable service under these conditions.

The SG20 family includes the option of
either a Bluetooth wireless or tethered
(cabled) scanner, and a choice between
high performance scan engines with laser
or LED aimers—perfect for patient-facing
applications. This makes it possible to
standardize on a single scanner family across
your healthcare operation while providing
just the right model for your exact needs.

A variety of matching accessories,
such as scanner stands, enable hands­free scanning and free up much
needed counter or COW space.

Setting a New Design Standard

The SG20 is enclosed in an all-white
housing to match the clean aesthetics
of most hospital environments.

The arching profile of the SG20 is
perfect for tight spaces and the large
multi-color LED can be customized to
match the color of your décor or brand.

Part of a Complete Intermec Solution

The SG20 can be quickly and easily configured
with Intermec’s exclusive EasySet™ PC
programming tool. In just a few clicks, this
Windows-based utility can print programming
barcodes for custom configurations.
Adjust security settings, symbologies,
beeper tone and volume, LED color—even
set up advanced data editing routines.
