FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Volume Shipment of High Density Matrix Code Reader 3.0
Draper, UT - February 8, 2006 -
Code Corporation announced volume shipments of its Code Reader 3.0 (CR3)
- released in September 2005 - to the healthcare
industry.
"Code has completed manufacture and field trials of its latest model reader, and
has begun shipping several high volume customer orders of the CR3. Our
distributors and their downline customers have eagerly awaited the arrival
of these remarkable readers," James Bagley, vice president of sales and marketing for Code Corporation, said.
The CR3 establishes a new benchmark for Portable Data Terminals
and Hand Held Computers by combining the industry's best imaging technology,
a rugged keyboard and a graphic display. The end product is the smallest
and lightest full-featured bar code reading terminal on the market.
Using the same ergonomic and communications platform with proven Bluetooth
wireless technology as the highly successful Code Reader 2.0, the CR3
now adds mobile keyboard input, display information and user prompts.
The CR3 instantly reads high density matrix symbols (two-dimensional
code) through Code's proprietary Dynamic Optimization Technology (DOT).
This feature is essential to supporting barcode point-of-care (BPOC)
and electronic medication administration reporting (eMAR) processes
in the health care industry. DOT continuously adapts its imaging capability,
essentially making the reader become smarter with use. Supporting Radio
Frequency communications, Code also recently introduced its latest generation
of the CodeXML Bluetooth Modem. The new modem supports all connectivity
options including USB, RS-232 and PS/2 interfaces.
Included as part of the CR3 reader, code's proprietary firmware
eliminates the need for costly, high-overhead operating systems. Its
open platform JavaScript development environment is contained within
the CodeXML Applications Development Suite. This companion product allows
users to generate specific applications without using programming code,
including data collection applications such as: the design of menus
and input screens; control of scanning and keypad entry; use of look-up
tables to validate input; and the sending of data to and from the CR3.
"The combination of technology components housed
in the CR3 uniquely enables it to support new initiatives in hospitals,
like eMAR," commented Bagley.
