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 tech-
nical 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).
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
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.
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 700 cd/m2 (nits) a device can be
considered sunlightreadable. 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 / multicopter control Military field
operations
For displays to remain readable in sunlight, a
min. of 700 nits
is required

1D/2D Barcode Reader
Which codes can our scan modules read?
1D-Codes
2D-Codes
1D codes have long been established in the industries or retail and denote a series of arranged bars forming a so-called onedimensional 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 builtin camera also recognizes classic QR codes.
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.
Testing method 501.5 502.5 503.5 504.1 507.5 510.5 514.6
