Available in industrial and retail versions,they build on Symbol Technologies heritage of world-leading technology andaward-winning ergonomic research. The futuristic 'handle-forward' design wasawarded a gold medal in the 1998 Industrial Design Excellence Awards (IDEA98)by Business Week magazine and the Industrial Design Society ofAmerica.The P370 is the industrial version for extremeenvironments while the P470 is ideal for data management in a retailenvironment. Both versions make even the most difficult jobs go faster,smoother and easier -because there's no cable there are no restraints.
Bothversions share the cutting-edge industrial design, powerful engine technologyand rich feature sets. Whatever the industry or application, Symbol has thetools for the job.Wireless Scanning - The Key to IncreasedProductivityThe P370 and P470 cordless scanners go where the data needs to be managed – upto 100 ft/30m from your host. That's because they use low-power radio frequency(RF) transmissions that do not require a license to communicate with your hostcomputer.The P370 is the industrial strength cordless scanner for extreme environmentsthat combines mobility, durability and aggressive scanning performance. Infactory or warehouse applications where the cable restricts movement andcordless scanning is simply a better solution. In harsh environments where thecable can get damaged and make your scanner system inoperable. In shipping andreceiving applications where the cable denies access, the P370 is the onlysolution.The P470 is ideal in retail environments where a cabled scanner limits accessbeyond the counter area. With the cordless P470 there are no cable restraintsso scanning heavy, oversized or bulk items that are difficult to place on thecounter at checkout is a breeze!Greater Convenience and HighPerformanceThe P370 and P470 cordless scanners deliver all the performance you've come toexpect in hand-held scanners from Symbol Technologies.

Symbol P370 Quick Reference Manual. P470: cordless retail scanner. P370: cordless industrial scanner. P370 ALR: cordless industrial ALR scanner. This Quick Reference Guide provides basic instruction on the set up and use of the Phaser P370/P470 RF scanners. Refer to PL 370/470 RF Cradle Quick Reference Guide (p/n 72-38494-xx.
They are built on theheritage of our industry leading scanners, known throughout the world as thebenchmark for fast, accurate bar code reading and reliability in tough outdoor,industrial and retail environments.The ergonomic contours of the P370 and P470 cordless scanners fit the handsecurely and help reduce fatigue - important in scan-intensive applications.The 17-key numeric keypad and easy-to-read two-line by 20-character display aretop-mounted for effortless access and visibility. The scanners weigh just 12oz/336 gm and are rugged and comfortable to use and withstand repeated 6ft/1.8m drops onto concrete. The industrial strength P370, sealed to IP54specifications against windblown rain and dust, operates in a wide temperaturerange and enables data management in places ordinary scanners could not gobefore.Tailor Applications with EaseBecause flexibility is the hallmark of the P370 and P470 cordless scanners,Symbol Technologies teamed it with MCL-Designer, an easy-to-use Windows-basedapplication development tool. Using MCL-Designer's intuitive graphical userinterface, even non-programmers can create custom programs. Applications can besimulated and debugged before they are downloaded to the scanner.
The MCLinterpreter is preloaded in memory.Flexible Host InterfaceThe base station for both versions features an integrated RS 232 and synapseinterface for connectivity to many popular PC, POS and computer terminals soits easy to integrate the scanners into your existing data collectionenvironment. In addition, replaceable interface cable modules make it easy toupgrade to new host terminals.The base station functions as a holder as well as a battery recharge station.Batteries are recharged within four hours either in the scanner or removed andcharged in a separate charger to maximize scanner use. We understand that thescanner has to last a full 8-hour shift so we integrated power-down circuitrythat conserves battery power by turning the scanner off after successful datatransmission.The P370 and P470 cordless scanners are backed by Symbol Technologies'worldwide service and support network.
With millions of scanners and terminalsinstalled, Symbol is the world leader in bar code-driven data transactionsystems.Flexibility that Works Inside and Outside theEnterpriseThe Phaser P370 and P470 cordless RF bar codescanners from Symbol Technologies are rugged, high-performance wireless devicesthat enable instant decision-making and seamless communications throughout theenterprise.Designed with a comfortable forward-scanningpistol grip to minimize fatigue in scan-intensive applications, the P370 andP470 scanners are available in keypad or keyless configurations.

For fast integration, both the P370 and P470 support the123Scan setup utility software, a convenient Microsoft ® Windows ® -based program that helps reduce yourstart-up time and costs for these scanners. This free utility enables you toconfigure communication settings and enable/disable symbologies. It alsoassists you in generating advanced data formatting (ADF) rules to allow barcode data to be modified by the scanner before it is sent to the hostapplication.
The P370 and P470 scanners can be programmed via PC download or byscanning bar codes generated by the utility.For added versatility, you can also purchaseMCLTM-Designer software, a programmable architecture that extends scannerfunctionality. Even non-programmers can develop custom data managementapplications to harness the on-board computing power of these scanners.Further, MCL-Link communication software easily connects the P370 and P470 toyour host. Capabilities include ODBC database connectivity plus the automationof frequent tasks such as nightly data downloads and look-up fileupdates.Proven Performance andAffordabilityWith the Phaser P370 and P470 cordless RF barcode scanners, you can choose the device that best meets your application needsin any environment. The P370 is suited for extreme environments, making itideal for warehouse, yard or loading dock applications.
And the P470 deliversthe identical data capture functionality for in-store uses including stockroomtasks and oversized item checkout. Both scanners deliver the proven performanceand affordability that customers have grown to expect from Symbol.
