TriCoder Portable Data Collection Bar Code Readers

The TriCoder™ inventory collection, portable bar code reader is battery operated and stores scanned or keyed data in its memory for later batch uploading to a computer. This is the perfect reader for physical inventory, receiving items into stock, remote scanning, and many other applications where portability is an issue.

The TriCoder™ also operates as a dual mode reader and actually performs the function of two different types of bar code readers:

  • A traditional portable "Data Collection" bar code reader

  • A "dumb" fixed reader operating in "Nonportable" mode

This means that the TriCoder is also perfect for POS, Retail, Library environments, or other applications where you need fixed bar code scanning for data input at the computer plus periodic inventory scanning for later batch upload.
