Scan Talker
Description
When you can't easily tell the difference between similar-shaped bottles, cans, and other product containers around your home, ScanTalker is the answer. ScanTalker for the PAC Mate makes it possible to quickly, easily, and accurately identify more than one million products, simply by reading the bar codes on their labels. Just hold the small, lightweight omni-directional scanner that is included in proximity to the barcode on a product package or container. ScanTalker automatically matches the bar code with available information in its vast database and speaks the product brand and name. For many items in the database, ScanTalker also provides product label information that sighted people take for granted, such as ingredients, preparation instructions, and dosages. Using PAC Mate commands, you can hear as much or as little information as you want. ScanTalker comes with a CompactFlash™ card pre-installed with databases, including: More than 285,000 grocery and pharmaceutical items More than 90,000 health and beauty aids More than 530,000 general merchandise items More than 320,000 audio and video compact discs With the omni-directional bar code reader, you need not hold the scanner stationary over a bar code. As long as the scanner is near the bar code, the information is gathered and read aloud, regardless of the position of the bar code. When you just need to identify products by name, use the Quick Scan Mode. The database is expandable, so if you don’t find an item, you can add it. The next time you use ScanTalker, the new item will be instantly recognized. ScanTalker even comes with labels to affix to personal items that you add to the database. ScanTalker 2.0 with the omni-directional scanner works with the PAC Mate BX and QX series running the 4.0 release or later. The complete package includes the ScanTalker application and databases on a 256 MB CompactFlash card, the scanner with cable and USB adapter, 100 pre-printed bar code labels, and documentation in print and on CD.' Note: The ScanTalker 2.0 update does not enable the omni-directional USB scanner. PAC Mate 4.0 is required to support the scanner. If you wish to purchase a Metrologic scanner as a separate item, it is available from a number of vendors over the Internet. Be sure to look for the Metrologic part number MK3780-61A38, which is the Model MS3780 scanner with USB. When the scanner is purchased separately from a third party, it must be configured to work with PAC Mate and ScanTalker.Distributer In India
