Telescan2 Portable Barcode Scanner 

Imagine the scenario. Your barcode scanner has been dropped and is broken, you have staff downtime on your hands and you know its going to be weeks before it can be repaired overseas. Productivity is suffering and customers becoming irritated – all thanks to one piece of equipment.

We all know that electronic equipment is pretty robust these days but accidents do happen and even the best technology fails occasionally. At times like this, what you need is peace of mind.

This is where the SB Electronic Systems' Telescan2 really comes into its own. The state of the art data capture terminals are British designed, manufactured and, most importantly, supported. The barcode scanners all come with a 24-month warranty with free return to manufacturer which, unlike most competitor products, is UK based. The customer aftersales package includes telephone support during business hours.

The Telescan2 is available in two versions; radio frequency (for on-line, live two-way communication applications) and batch.

The data capture terminals offer a wide variety of applications, according to SB Electronic Systems managing director Paul Burchett. "Our Telescan2 terminals are used by a large range of companies in diverse ways. These range from Disney Corporation for film stock control, through Glaxo Smith Kline and Lloyds TSB for document control to Queen Mary University of London for a security application. If you have bar codes and want to collect and analyse data in addition to recording bar codes, then Telescan2 is the tool for you."

A critical part of any equipment such as these portable barcode scanners is the software interface and Paul is proud of his company's achievements in designing a program that takes a lot of the complexity out of setting up. "The TeleLink software is as simple as possible and covers as many scenarios as possible, allowing users to create programs from drop-down menus," said Paul.

SB Electronic System's aftersales is described as 'fantastic', by Simon Michael, Disney's Broadcast Application Support Supervisor.

"We always get a response, well within 24 hours. The support is friendly, reliable and extremely helpful. It is without question one of the best external support providers," he said.
