The Casio DT-930 just got even more rugged

Casio has launched an option for the rugged DT-930, its ergonomic, entry-level scanning terminal.

This option allows the DT-930 to be dropped to concrete from 2 metres without any adverse effects, an increase of 0.2 metres from the standard device. The option, a light-weight rubber device that fits securely around the screen, still allows easy access to the trigger buttons for easy scanning. 

The DT-930 offers workers in a wide variety of vertical markets an economical way to more efficiently record information. With an incredible battery life of up to 200 hours of continuous operation from 2 x AA alkaline batteries, the DT-930 is the ideal tool to increase productivity. With large backlit plastic keys, operation is easy even in dark environments such as warehouses or stock rooms. The bright, high contrast monochrome LCD display is also easy to read indoors or outdoors.

The rugged terminal features two choices of high-speed laser scanner a straight type, which is ideal for retail stocktaking, and an angled type which is suited for scanning packages, pages of barcodes or for fashion retail. For accurate scanning the unit also has three scan confirmation methods, vibration, a large LED or beep to ensure accurate scanning even in noisy or dark environments.

Bluetooth is standard on both models allowing wireless connectivity to Bluetooth printers for printing shelf edge labels.
