1 | Introduction

The Socket CompactFlash Scan Card (CFSC) Series 5

gives you the freedom of scanning bar codes anytime

anywhere with a variety of Windows-based mobile

computers. The card’s compact design lets you scan with

only one hand when used with a PDA.

The CFSC is sleekly designed with no cables or batteries

and is available in three configurations:

•CFSC 5E – Entry Level, CMOS

•CFSC 5M – Mid-Range, Class 1 Laser

•CFSC 5P – Performance, Class 2 Laser

See Appendix C for a detailed comparison of the two

laser classes.

The CFSC Series 5 works in the CompactFlash or PC Card slot of:

•Pocket PC 2000/2002/2003/2003SE

•HPC 2000 or pen tablet running Windows CE v3.0 or greater

•Notebook computer running Windows 98SE, Me, 2000 or XP.

About the Software

SocketScan™ enters scanned data directly into any open

Windows program, as if the data were manually typed. You

can configure Prefix/Suffixes and assign a .WAV file to

signify good data reads.

For Windows Mobile, SocketScan also includes a

Symbology Selector and Scan Demo. The Symbology

Selector makes it easy to choose the symbologies you want

to enable/disable in the scanner. Scan Demo helps you

identify the properties of an unfamiliar bar code.

For Windows 98SE/Me/2000/XP, SocketScan makes it easy

to assign a function key to trigger the scanner.

For Windows Mobile, also included is SocketScan Trigger,

which places a software trigger on your screen that you can

tap to trigger the laser. Installation is optional.
