Long Description

Overview:

Dependable, Affordable and Purpose-Built for Healthcare
In critical healthcare environments theres no room for error. Give your clinicians the ability to get it done right. The DS2200-HC Series can withstand the constant disinfecting required at the point-of-care. It easily and accurately captures the barcodes commonly used in hospitals. And you get a purpose-built healthcare scanner that fits your budget- without compromising on performance or features. Corded and cordless models meet your scanning needs to improve patient safety and staff productivity.

Features:

Purpose-Built for Healthcare
Your mission-critical operations deserve a specialist, not a general purpose scanner. With the DS2200-HC Series, you get a scanner thats built for the job. IP52 sealing and disinfectant-ready housing withstand regular sanitising with popular disinfectants. A "Do Not Disturb Mode" enables clinicians to instantly know if a medication or wristband was properly scanned without disturbing a resting patient with a loud beep.

Easy to Deploy and Manage
Right out of the box, the scanner is configured for the healthcare applications you use everyday, while auto-host detect cables automatically select the right host interface-just plug in the scanner and youre ready to go. You can easily customise settings with 123Scan to create configuration barcodes to programme scanners, update firmware or stage a large number of devices. And the DS2200-HC Series is designed for easy integration with your tablet-based EMR applications.

Enhanced Patient Safety and Experience
Corded and cordless models meet your scanning needs. You get a superior cordless experience with a long-lasting battery that will likely never need to be replaced, Connect+ Contact Technology for reliable charging, and Wi-Fi Friendly Mode preventing network interference. PRZM software decode algorithms enable first time, every time capture of challenging barcodes, and an innovative aim line provides the most intuitive aiming.

DS2278-HC Cordless Scanner - Fast, Flexible and Easy Charging
Purpose-built for healthcare, you can simply plug the scanner directly into the host or any standard wall socket via the Micro USB cable to charge the cordless DS2278-HC in just an hour. The presentation cradle, which provides hands-free scanning, charges the DS2278-HC in just four hours. Scan-to-Connect technology allows clinicians can pair with any Bluetooth-enabled PC, tablet or smartphone with a single scan. And the long-lasting 2400 mAh Lithium Ion battery will likely never need to be replaced.
