1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 LYNX DESCRIPTION
The Lynx contains the most innovative technical features, providing them to the user
in an ergonomic and elegant form factor. The accelerometer, the vibrator alert and
the 3 LEDs help to not waste time in the configuration and usage of the product.
Working with the Lynx becomes an easy pleasure.
Great aesthetics do not put the robustness on a second level. The Lynx has been
designed for survival in the industrial environmental, outside or inside the four walls.
The reliability of the product continues with the architecture chosen: an 806MHz
processor working with 256 MB of RAM and 512 MB of Flash. A Micro SD card slot
supporting micro SDHC storage cards provides for virtually unlimited storage space.
The Lynx has been equipped with both a 1D laser scanner and 2D bar code imager.
Ready for the most demanding applications, an autofocus camera with flash has
been foreseen on the back of the product.
The Lynx wireless technology provides as many as four radios with internal
antennas: Bluetooth® EDR for fast and close data connections, 802.11 b/g/n Cisco
CCX v4 certified Wi-Fi for quick wireless network access, 3G/4G (HSPA+) for real-
time wide area communication and Assisted GPS for location based applications.
The Lynx integrates the latest Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5, tailored for mobile
devices. As with all Datalogic computers, also this PDA offers Wavelink Avalanche®
for a fast configuration and deploymant. Finally, Datalogic’s comprehensive service
programs protect the Lynx investment.
