The Formula 734-E and F734-E/RF are lightweight, pocket-sized and fully programmable terminals claiming the greatest sales success of the Datalogic MC range. With 1MB of RAM memory for managing large databases and 512KB of Flash memory for application programs, these terminals solve the most complex application needs and exploit the “overspeed” feature to boost software performance. Equipped with a practical 25-key alphanumeric keyboard that allows data, codes and descriptions to be input very quickly and a wide backlit LCD display which clearly shows much information, these devices represent the ideal solution for many applications in the Retail, Transportation & Logistics and Manufacturing markets.

Both the F734-E batch version and the F734-E/RF Radio version offer excellent reading performance, that allows bar codes to be scanned up to a distance of 70 cm, and long life batteries that assure great autonomy, capable of covering more than one work shift. By using the optional EasyGen™ Application Generator or the DS for Formula™ software packages, developers can easily customize any batch application according to the end user’s specific needs. The most common data collection operations such as inventory, picking and shipping/receiving become easy to perform.

The Formula 734-E/RF radio terminal is the right choice for exploiting all the benefits of mobility and real-time communication. Completely compatible with Datalogic’s STAR-System™, it offers a reliable and cost-effective solution. Software developers can take advantage of the power and completeness of DS for Formula™ and of the flexibility and ease-of-use of ForWin™ when building personalized applications.

Thanks to their excellent price/performance ratio, F734-E and F734-E/RF represent an optimal solution for many applications in many different markets.
