SCORPION Rugged Tablets and Handhelds Installation Guide

SCORPION
Buyers Guide
Everything you need to know before buying our rugged tablets and industrial handhelds

Checklist

Your checklist before buying a rugged tablet or handhelds

• Application Field: Will the mobile device be used indoors or outdoors?
• 1D/2D Barcode Reader: Which codes can our scan modules read?
• Certifications: Which type of protection should you choose?
• Comparison Table: All SCORPION models in direct comparison

Before purchasing a SCORPION rugged tablet or industrial handheld, we provide you with an essential checklist you can go through step by step in this buyers guide. Experience has shown that not only the most important technical questions can be clarified in advance, but also problems and misunderstandings after an order can be avoided. In this buyers guide, we inform you about the features you should look for in the hardware.
The first and foremost requirement is the application for which you want to use the rugged tablet or handheld. In general, our SCORPION devices are suitable for almost any industrial application fields, but it is important to clarify, if the mobile terminal will be used primarily for indoor or outdoor applications (or both). Furthermore, we explain which scan modules are installed in the individual SCORPION models and which codes can be read by each. Our 1D/2D scanners are only available as optional accessories on most of our rugged tablets and can be omitted if not needed.
Additionally, we’ll be getting into details about the hardware certifications in this buying guide. All SCORPION models have a standardized MIL-STD-810G and at least IP65 certification, but the meaning of these cryptic abbreviations, will be cleared up as well.
Last but not least, we give you a significant spec sheet of all our SCORPION rugged tablets and handhelds in direct comparison. In a tabular view, you will find all important specifications as well as suitable accessories at a glance. More detailed information on the individual devices as well as data sheets, quick-start guides and drivers can be found online at: www.scorpion- rugged.de/en

Application Field

Will the mobile device be used indoors or outdoors?

As a user, you basically have to be clear about whether you prefer to use a rugged tablet or handheld indoors or outdoors. For indoor use in industrial facilities, using a MIL-SPEC certification and IP65 certification is usually sufficient. Our entire SCORPION portfolio is well equipped for this application field. But the working conditions in outdoor areas require an entirely different approach.
Do you often or occasionally have to work outside in direct sunlight?
It is important to clarify this question, because although all SCORPION‘s are outdoor capable, not all screens are readable in direct sunlight by default. Only with a display brightness of at least 800 cd/m 2 (nits) a device can be considered sunlight-readable. We have so-called high brightness models in our portfolio specifically for this use case, namely the SCORPION 10X series.

The SCORPION‘s are suited for:

• Warehouses and stores
• Craftsmen and workshops
• Industrial production lines
• Transportation and logistics
• Police and fire vehicles
• Forklift terminals
• Agriculture or construction sites
• Drone / multi copter control
• Military field operations

1D/2D Barcode Reader

Which codes can our scan modules read?

1D codes have long been established in the industries or retail and denote a series of arranged bars forming a so-called one-dimensional code. Each of our SCORPION devices offers the possibility to read 1D barcodes, these include for example Code 39, Code 128, EAN, UPC and Code 2/5 interleaved.

All SCORPION barcode readers are capable of recognizing two-dimensional codes, allowing more data to be read on the same space. This includes stacked 2D codes such as PDF417 and Codablock A as well as 2D matrices. In addition, the built-in camera also recognizes classic QR codes.

Which scan modules are integrated into the SCORPIONs?

SCORPION 6″ (scanner included)
Motorola Zebra SE2707| SCORPION 8″ PLUS
Newland LV3096| SCORPION 10X Android (scanner included)

Certifications

Which type of protection should you choose?

What does MIL-STD-810G mean?
MIL-STD-810 certifications designate a set of standardized testing methods for the U.S. military, defining, among others, the compatibility of equipment in dealing with high temperature fluctuations, atmospheric pressure, humidity, vibration or solar radiation.
All SCORPION rugged tablets and handhelds are already offered with a MIL-STD- 810G certification as a standard, which among others grants them a drop resistance of up to 1.5 meters.

What does the IP rating mean?

All-round protection no extraprotective cover needed
