RE: Hand held Barcode scanner - For Picking

[Greg Wenzloff <GWenzloff@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hrishikesh,

In 1995 we installed handheld and vehicle mounted terminals in our warehouse
which display 8 lines X 40 Characters.   They use 5250 emulation like the
one you tested.  We wrote all the programs to do functions like cycle count,
order picking/shipping, stocking, receipts etc.

We like our system. It works well and is easy to maintain and modify.  Today
many people would call this technology almost obsolete but we like it.
Unless you order color screens, the current crop of handheld terminals do
not impress me.    Good luck with your project.

Subject: Hand held Barcode scanner - For Picking

   Hi *ALL,

    

   We are in the process of implementing barcode picking in our shop.
   Recently, we were given a demo by a barcode scanner company. The screen
is
   12 rows by 40 characters but it displays the 24x80 screen. We had to
   scroll to see the entire contents of this screen.

    

   Now we would like to have the Mapics transaction screen (for IP, IS, RP,
   PC etc.) to appear on this screen. Here, we intend to have a custom
   program that will come up on this screen. I would appreciate your inputs
   on this issue to help our design process.

   Regards,
