The Worth Data 7000 Series RF Terminals are the lowest cost, easy-to-use, radio frequency interactive terminals available on the market today.  These terminals communicate with a B5001 Base Station access point attached to a PC, or any computer, via a RS-232 serial port. They offer unprecedented performance while still holding claim to the easiest-to-implement of any mobile radio terminal system in the industry. The 7000 Series Terminal maintain complete software compatibility with any older generations of Worth Data Terminals¹. Some of the industry leading features on the 7000 series terminals include:

• Extended Range Radio - 3.3 Miles!
• 15 Line Color TFT LCD Display
• Very Small & Lightweight
• Ergonomic Rugged Housing
• Built in Li-Ion Battery(s)
• Shock Mounted LCD & PCB
• Splash & Dust Resistant
• LT7001H Model with Gun Handle
• LT7002 Featuring Bluetooth^® Technology

Worth Data has been the leader in small size, long range RF Terminals for over 14 years, and this new Generation 3 system is a huge step forward in both ergonomics and performance - all for the same price as our older 700 series. It is truly unmatched by any other product on the market. Our engineers worked long and hard to create a superior product. Long range means less installation cost in wiring and access points. One base station can support 1-64 RF Terminals and with the exceptional RF range can cover almost all locations, eliminating the need for additional wiring and access points.

There are 4 models currently available: The LT7001 with a laser scanner integrated into the top of the unit, plus the LT7001H with a laser scanner integrated into the unit, but with the addition of a gun style handle, plus 2 additional models featuring Bluetooth wireless technology for mobile printing and communication. The handles on the LT7001H & LT7002H models makes for even easier one-handed scanning, plus there is second Li-ion battery in the handle so the battery life is doubled when compared to the LT7001/LT7002 models.

Since there is no program on the Terminal to write, and since a host program in any language can totally control the Terminal, programming time and costs are significantly less than with competitive terminals.

As enterprise mobility becomes increasingly important, Worth Data is committed to providing solutions for the small business owner as well as corporate entities. Our solutions are easy to implement getting you connected faster, all at a lower cost!

Small but Powerful
Despite its small size and weight - the LT700x is less than 10 ounces with integrated bar code laser scanner and Li-ion battery - this unit can cover over 1,000,000 square feet of open warehouse space and has over 3.3 miles of line of site range in an open area!

Simple Operation
Each scan and each time you press the Enter key, data is transmitted to the host. The host sends prompts back to the display and can even trigger voice message broadcasts at the same time.

Rugged Design Features
The 7000 series terminal is a complete redesign from the ground up. Our tests show no damage after multiple 5 foot drops to concrete. We have implemented several design features to improve the toughness of the unit including:

• Single Main PCB Design for High Reliability
• 70 Durometer Silicone Rubber Shock Bumper
• Dust & Splash Resistant Design Features
• Built-In I/O Connector Cover
• Long Life Single Power & Data I/O Connector
• Sealed Keypad design to prevent contamination from entering unit
• Special Coated Keys for long life
• Robust .060" Thick, Scratch Resistant Polycarbonate LCD Overlay
• Shock Mounted LCD Module
• Battery Door and/or Handle are Mechanically Screwed Down
• Rugged Replaceable Antenna
• Tough Thick Wall Polycarbonate/ABS Plastic Housing
• Black Color - Reduces Appearance of Dirt & Grime
• Integrated Rugged Strap Eyelet

Improved Ergonomics
The 7000 Series Terminal has been designed with the ergonomics of the user in mind. We have added a high visibility 15 Line TFT Color QVGA LCD Display without increasing the overall size of the unit. In addition to the new LCD the keypad layout has been designed to make scanning and keying easier. The small size and weight of the unit along with the curved shape make it very easy to hold and scan for long periods of time.

Our biggest ergonomic change involves the addition of the optional H7000 handle. The H7000 handle makes scanning much easier for long term use and was one of our most requested features. The handle is sold on the unit when you purchase a LT7001H or LT7002H, or you can add it to your terminals at a later date if you want to by ordering the H7000 unit.

Integrated High Speed Laser Bar Code Scanner
The 7000 Series Terminals all come with a high speed 1D barcode laser reader built into the top of the unit. When you press the scan button, or the trigger on the handle, a laser beam scans at 100 times per second to pick up even poorly printed or damaged bar codes easily. The unit can also scan very high density codes with narrow bars as small as 2.5mil .0025" (0.064mm) - equivalent to 23cpi Code 39!

Bar code types supported include UPC/EAN, UCC-EAN-128, Code 39, Full ASCII Code 39, Code 128, GS1-128, ITF-14, GTIN, Codabar, MSI Plessey, GS1 DataBar (RSS-14) omni and stacked variants, ITF Interleaved 2 of 5, Standard 2 of 5, Bookland EAN, Code 11, LabelCode4, LabelCode5, Storage Tek, and Code 93. The reader auto discriminates automatically.

Below is the chart of the typical range of reading. A 6 mil barcode is considered high density, the 10mil and 14mil are typical general purpose medium density, and the 40 mil and 100 mil are large low density codes.

Internal Li-ion Rechargeable Battery
We are using a industry standard NP-120 Li-ion battery in the unit which has a capacity of 1950mAh. In the event of failure this battery is field replaceable - via 2 screws on the door or handle. With our advanced battery charging you can have a full charge in 2-3 hours or less! Intelligent charging replenishes only the power used - no need to fully discharge batteries or wait through a full charging cycle for partially used batteries! With the LT700xH Handle unit you will get a second battery included in the handle which will effectively double the battery life of the unit.

Lowest Cost Available
A starter system of one LT7001 terminal and one B5001 base station with a serial cable and power supplies is just $2,340.00 Additional terminals are inexpensive. Up to 64 Terminals can talk to one Base Station and are easily supported with little or no contention.

You can start small, develop your applications, and then expand at a low incremental cost. Unsurpassed performance at the lowest price- unbeatable value!!

Serial Compatibility
For users who have software written for the older 70 series or 700 Series RF Terminals, the Base Station maintains the same serial interface. Extensive tools and demonstrations are available including demos in VisualBasic, Access, and Delphi - plus complete ActiveX components. We even supply demo programs written in GW BASIC; it's that simple.

If you need additional coverage, Relay Stations can be added.

Easiest to Implement
There is no programming on the terminal. All programming is on the host computer in the language of your choice. Your only requirement is to send commands out the serial port . Any platform and any language can literally make the terminal sing. Whether you write simple serial port command strings or you use our supplied Active X components with Windows®, we make it easy for you. There's only one program to write and maintain. No development package is necessary to buy. All you need is supplied with the purchase of a Base Station. It's the perfect product for developers who wish to distribute systems to remote locations. Since the new B5001 Base Station uses the same serial interface as before, all programming done for the previous generation RF Terminal system will work with the new system. New programming will be required to support the new 15 Line LCD if your software doesn't already support it.

Controlling the RF Terminal
A user program does not run on the RF Terminal. There are three levels of host computer programming support provided for the RF Terminal:

Low Level Programming strings sent to the serial port is the most basic method of programming which applies to any language and any platform which can read and write to a serial port. (For Windows® users there is a free DLL provided to simplify the serial commands). Click here for details on Low Level Programming.

ActiveX support is also provided which provides the overall structure and all routines which when completed, result in a running application. It is compatible with Visual Basic, Visual C++®, Delphi, and most other Windows 32 bit development platforms. Click here to download the PromptCOM ActiveX pdf programming guide . You can also download the latest ActiveX for the 7000 here.

TCP/IP support allows the operation of terminals across a TCP/IP network connection. This configuration requires a "client" computer and a "server" computer. It is compatible with Visual Basic, Visual C++, Delphi, and most other 32-bit development platforms. Click here to download the "PrompNET TCP/IP Active X pdf programming guide.

Again, there is no programming necessary on the RF Terminal itself. All programming is on the host computer and can be in Visual Basic, Access, C, Basic, etc. Any platform and any language that can read/write to a serial port can be used.

Optional Encryption
While it is unlikely that anyone would have the ability to monitor the RF data you are transmitting, if you do need more extensive security of your data the 7000 RF Terminal system offers optional encryption of the RF data traffic between the B5001 base station and the terminals. We use a proprietary 32-bit passcode encryption method to encrypt all of the data that is transferred over the RF spectrum. You choose the passcode and enter it into both the base station and each terminal to complete this security setup.

KwikCount/RF for Excel
All 7000 RF Terminals include our KwikCount/RF add-in for Excel! This add-in gives you a simple, interactive program development tool using Excel; right out of the box - no programming knowledge needed! If you can use Excel, then you can use KwikCount/RF to develop interactive real-time applications which use an Excel data base - including inventory, shipping, and receiving applications! Many applications include an import/export feature for Excel - allowing you to export your application's data, use KwikCount/RF to update the data base on-line, and then import the updated data back into your application - all with NO programming knowledge required! This is perfect for inventory, shipping, receiving and even shelf price verification! Not only can you collect data, but you can display data from the Excel data base to help the user make decisions based on the data in the computer files.

Optional & Upgradeable Handle
The 7000 RF Terminal system offers an interchangeable battery door and handle system. You can either use the standard battery door, standard on the LT7001 & LT7002, or you can order the LT7001H or LT7002H with the gun handle already installed. The handle is also available separately as an optional, field upgradeable handle to use in place of the battery door, so you can upgrade a LT70x1 to use the H7000 handle at any time in the future. The H7000 handle is easy to install and includes a second battery in the handle to double the battery life.

Mobile Portable Printer Support
The LT7002 and LT7002H RF Terminals are equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology and are capable of talking to any printer with Bluetooth wireless technology built in, including the Zebra^® Mobile Portable Printer models RW 220, RW420, MZ 220, MZ 320, EM 220 & P4T, allowing you to easily print product/price labels, barcode labels, receipts or other tags. Communication and printing to any other brand of mobile printers that are equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology is very easy using the special menus built into our 7002 RF Terminals.

All models of the 7000 RF Terminals also support the easy-to-use Zebra Portable Printers like the QL 220 Plus, QL 320 Plus, QL 420 Plus, the older QL320, plus the Cameo 2 receipt printer with built in Magstripe (pictured below) using our C13 Serial Printer Cable.

The Cameo 2 is a lightweight, ergonomically-designed portable receipt printer with magnetic stripe and is an excellent choice for POS, Point of Purchase, Hospitality and anywhere a receipt is needed and/or magstripe input including credit card scanning is required.  Common uses would be rental car returns, ticket sales, and the restaurant & food services industries. We are currently offering the Cameo 2 on closeout for only $399.00

Using standard RF Terminal programming, the host computer simply sends printer command sequences to the RF Terminal. These printers greatly increase the functionality of the RF Terminal.

Voice Messages
In addition to the display prompts and error messages, the RF Terminal has the ability to audibly prompt and advise the operator with pre-recorded prompts and error advisories triggered by the host program. Voice messages are particularly helpful in poorly lit areas, cold environments, non-English speaking cultures, and keyless applications (faster scanning without having to refer to the display).

802.11 Wi-Fi vs. 7000 Series RF Terminals
802.11 Wi-Fi is a spread spectrum radio format that typically operates in the 2.4GHz band and is very popular around the world.  However, it only has around 100-300ft range in most applications and requires extensive site surveys plus special wiring and locating of the access points to correctly cover any large area or building. Even the more powerful Wi-Fi 802.11n radios can only cover around 650ft (200m) at best. Our 900MHz 7000 Series RF Terminals use a very powerful 900MHz spread spectrum radio that can easily cover many thousands of square feet with a single base station, plus you can expand the coverage even further using relays - in an open area our range is over 3 miles! Our radio has 25 times the range of the very best Wi-Fi radios. It is very common for a customer to install just one B5001 Base Station in a corner of a large warehouse and still get complete coverage in the entire building. We feel that our 7000 series RF terminal is the best solution for any location that doesn't already have a working Wi-Fi based radio network covering the entire working area required.  If you already have endured the expense of surveys, wiring and installing a working 802.11 Wi-Fi radio network in your location then Worth data does offers the LT802 Wi-Fi RF terminal

Extending Range with Relay Station
Relay Stations give even greater coverage and overcome steel structured wall limitations of separate rooms. Relays are connected by 422 cable to the Base Station. The Base station B5001 can be converted to operate as a relay with a simple jumper change.
